Famous quotes containing the word anarchy:
“Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“It’s the anarchy of poverty
delights me, the old
yellow wooden house indented
among the new brick tenements”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
