Order

Famous quotes containing the word order:

    We would not let ourselves be burned at the stake for our opinions: we are not that certain of them. But perhaps we would do so in order to be allowed to possess and to change them.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Women do not have to sacrifice personhood if they are mothers. They do not have to sacrifice motherhood in order to be persons. Liberation was meant to expand women’s opportunities, not to limit them. The self-esteem that has been found in new pursuits can also be found in mothering.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    In a drama of the highest order there is little food for censure or hatred; it teaches rather self-knowledge and self- respect.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
