Famous quotes containing the words structures and/or construction:
“The philosopher believes that the value of his philosophy lies in its totality, in its structure: posterity discovers it in the stones with which he built and with which other structures are subsequently built that are frequently betterand so, in the fact that that structure can be demolished and yet still possess value as material.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“Theres no art
To find the minds construction in the face:
He was a gentleman on whom I built
An absolute trust.”
