Order Modes

Famous quotes containing the words order and/or modes:

    It seems only yesterday that we saw
    The movie with the cows in it
    And turned to one at your side, who burped
    As morning saw a new garnet-and-pea-green order propose
    Itself out of the endless bathos, like science-fiction lumps.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The history of reform is always identical; it is the comparison of the idea with the fact. Our modes of living are not agreeable to our imagination. We suspect they are unworthy. We arraign our daily employments.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
