Order

Famous quotes containing the word order:

    In order to shake a hypothesis, it is sometimes not necessary to do anything more than push it as far as it will go.
    Denis Diderot (1713–1784)

    To me the “female principle” is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws.
    Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)

    We do not live to think, but, on the contrary, we think in order that we may succeed in surviving.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
