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)
“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)
““I have said no
To everything, in order to get at myself.
I have wiped away moonlight like mud....””
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
