Bleeding Order

Famous quotes containing the words bleeding and/or order:

    The wounded surgeon plies the steel
    That questions the distempered part;
    Beneath the bleeding hands we feel
    The sharp compassion of the healer’s art
    Resolving the enigma of the fever chart.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Today Americans are overcome not by the sense of endless possibility but by the banality of the social order they have erected against it.
    Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
