Structures Determined

Famous quotes containing the words structures and/or determined:

    “It is clear that all verbal structures with meaning are verbal imitations of that elusive psychological and physiological process known as thought, a process stumbling through emotional entanglements, sudden irrational convictions, involuntary gleams of insight, rationalized prejudices, and blocks of panic and inertia, finally to reach a completely incommunicable intuition.”
    —Northrop Frye (b. 1912)

    “One thing I am determined on is that by the time I die my brain shall weigh as much as a man’s if study and learning can make it so.”
    —M. Carey Thomas (1857–1935)
