Famous quotes containing the words structures, world and/or war:

    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)

    His life was gentle, and the elements
    So mixed in him that nature might stand up
    And say to all the world “This was a man.”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Nietzsche, to the end of his days, remained a Russian pastor’s son, and hence two-thirds of a Puritan; he erected his war upon holiness, toward the end, into a sort of holy war.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
