Famous quotes containing the word structure:

    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    What is the most rigorous law of our being? Growth. No smallest atom of our moral, mental, or physical structure can stand still a year. It grows—it must grow; nothing can prevent it.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
