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)

    “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)

    “... the structure of our public morality crashed to earth. Above its grave a tombstone read, “Be tolerant—even of evil.” Logically the next step would be to say to our commonwealth’s criminals, “I disagree that it’s all right to rob and murder, but naturally I respect your opinion.” Tolerance is only complacence when it makes no distinction between right and wrong.”
    —Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 2, ch. 2 (1962)
