Famous quotes containing the words order and/or battle:

    “Man needs to know but little more than a lobster in order to catch him in his traps.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “There is nothing more poetic and terrible than the skyscrapers’ battle with the heavens that cover them. Snow, rain, and mist highlight, drench, or conceal the vast towers, but those towers, hostile to mystery and blind to any sort of play, shear off the rain’s tresses and shine their three thousand swords through the soft swan of the fog.”
    —Federico García Lorca (1898–1936)
