Famous quotes containing the words rank and/or structure:

    “I have not loved the world, nor the world me;
    I have not flatter’d its rank breath, nor bow’d
    To its idolatries a patient knee.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “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)
