Famous quotes containing the words word and/or order:

    A word perhaps loud spoken you may get,
    Or hear our feet when heavily they tread;
    But he who speaks, or him who’s spoken to,
    Must both remain as strangers still to you.
    Jones Very (1831–1880)

    The present era grabs everything that was ever written in order to transform it into films, TV programmes, or cartoons. What is essential in a novel is precisely what can only be expressed in a novel, and so every adaptation contains nothing but the non-essential. If a person is still crazy enough to write novels nowadays and wants to protect them, he has to write them in such a way that they cannot be adapted, in other words, in such a way that they cannot be retold.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
