War begets quiet quiet proverb

 War begets quiet, quiet idleness, idleness disorder, disorder ruin; likewise ruin order, order virtue, virtue glory, and good fortune.
  Walter Raleigh, Sr.

 [*] Memoirs of Hadrian ... Catastrophe and ruin will come; disorder will triumph, but order will too, from time to time.
  Marguerite Yourcenar

 In any country where talent and virtue produce no advancement, money will be the national god. Its inhabitants will either have to possess money or make others believe that they do. Wealth will be the highest virtue, poverty the greatest vice. Those who have money will display it in every imaginable way. If their ostentation does not exceed their fortune, all will be well. But if their ostentation does exceed their fortune they will ruin themselves. In such a country, the greatest fortunes will vanish in the twinkling of an eye. Those who don't have money will ruin themselves with vain efforts to conceal their poverty. That is one kind of affluence: the outward sign of wealth for a small number, the mask of poverty for the majority, and a source of corruption for all.
  Denis Diderot

 Idleness, women, disorder, a foolish partiality for one's own native place, discontent and timidity are six obstructions to greatness.

  François de la Rochefoucauld

 A number of previous studies have linked lower levels of omega-3 to clinically significant conditions such as major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, substance abuse and attention-deficit disorder.

 I have accepted a seat in the House of Representatives, and thereby have consented to my own ruin, to your ruin, and to the ruin of our children. I give you this warning that you may prepare your mind for your fate.

 Am I going home to idleness? No, no. My feet and hands may be still, not so the mind--that has its aspirations yet, and it will work, for it has a law unto itself. Idleness is one thing, doing is another.
  Lew Wallace

 There is a quality even meaner than outright ugliness or disorder, and this meaner quality is the dishonest mask of pretended order, achieved by ignoring or suppressing the real order that is struggling to exist and to be served.
  Jane Jacobs

 We need quiet time to examine our lives openly and honestly. . . spending quiet time alone gives your mind an opportunity to renew itself and create order.

 Two dangers constantly threaten the world: order and disorder.
  Paul Valery

 Order is never observed; it is disorder that attracts attention because it is awkward and intrusive.

 Order is never observed; it is disorder that attracts attention because it is awkward and intrusive.

  Napoleon Bonaparte
