Famous quotes containing the word structure:

    “Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.”
    —Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)

    “Communism is a proposition to structure the world more reasonably, a proposition for changing the world. As such, we have to analyze it and, if we deem it reasonable, act upon it.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    “In the extent and proper structure of the Union, therefore, we behold a republican remedy for the diseases most incident to republican government.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)
