Order Odes

Famous quotes containing the words order and/or odes:

    “However fiercely opposed one may be to the present order, an old respect for the idea of order itself often prevents people from distinguishing between order and those who stand for order, and leads them in practise to respect individuals under the pretext of respecting order itself.”
    —Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)

    “To be a woman and a writer
    is double mischief, for
    the world will slight her
    who slights “the servile house,” and who would rather
    make odes than beds.”
    —Dilys Laing (1906–1960)
