Famous quotes containing the word structure:

    “A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.”
    —C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)
