Famous quotes containing the words structures of, structures and/or interest:

    “If there are people who feel that God wants them to change the structures of society, that is something between them and their God. We must serve him in whatever way we are called. I am called to help the individual; to love each poor person. Not to deal with institutions. I am in no position to judge.”
    —Mother Teresa (b. 1910)

    “The American who has been confined, in his own country, to the sight of buildings designed after foreign models, is surprised on entering York Minster or St. Peter’s at Rome, by the feeling that these structures are imitations also,—faint copies of an invisible archetype.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “There are persons who, when they cease to shock us, cease to interest us.”
    —F.H. (Francis Herbert)
