Famous quotes containing the words rank and/or structure:
“My rank is the highest known in Switzerland: I am a free citizen.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Man is more disposed to domination than freedom; and a structure of dominion not only gladdens the eye of the master who rears and protects it, but even its servants are uplifted by the thought that they are members of a whole, which rises high above the life and strength of single generations.”
—Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)
