Order

Famous quotes containing the word order:

    If I know how or which way to order these affairs
    Thus disorderly thrust into my hands,
    Never believe me.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    All grandeur, all power, all subordination to authority rests on the executioner: he is the horror and the bond of human association. Remove this incomprehensible agent from the world and at that very moment order gives way to chaos, thrones topple and society disappears.
    Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)

    We do not praise others, ordinarily, but in order to be praised ourselves.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
