Order Rocking Motion

Famous quotes containing the words order, rocking and/or motion:

“Deafness produces bizarre effects, reversing the natural order of things; the interchange of letters is the conversation of the deaf, and the only link with society. I would be in despair, for instance, over seeing you speak, but, instead, I am only too happy to hear you write.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

“Another time I go outside
Into the world. It rocks on and on.
It was rocking before I saw it
And is presumably doing so still.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“in the mind of man,
A motion and a spirit, that impels
All thinking things, all objects of all thought,
And rolls through all things.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
