Famous quotes containing the word structure:

    “With sixty staring me in the face, I have developed inflammation of the sentence structure and definite hardening of the paragraphs.”
    —James Thurber (1894–1961)

    “When a house is tottering to its fall,
    The strain lies heaviest on the weakest part,
    One tiny crack throughout the structure spreads,
    And its own weight soon brings it toppling down.”
    —Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    “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)
