Famous quotes containing the words rank and/or structure:

    “Do not use your rank to degrade others, nor use your cleverness to deceive others.”
    —Chinese proverb.

    “Who says that fictions only and false hair
    Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?
    Is all good structure in a winding stair?
    May no lines pass, except they do their duty
    Not to a true, but painted chair?”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)
