Famous quotes containing the words bras, order and/or battle:

    You mean those nuts that burn their bras and walk around all disheveled and hate men? They’re crazy. Crazy.
    Golda Meir (1898–1978)

    and if the day
    is no day for miracles, then the preparations
    are an order one may rest in.
    But one doesn’t want
    rest, one wants miracles.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Forty years after a battle it is easy for a noncombatant to reason about how it ought to have been fought. It is another thing personally and under fire to have to direct the fighting while involved in the obscuring smoke of it.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
