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

    He may have seen with his mechanic eyes
    A world without a meaning, and had room,
    Alone amid magnificence and doom,
    To build himself an airy monument
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    “... War is for everyone, for children too.
    I wasn’t going to tell you and I mustn’t.
    The best way is to come uphill with me
    And have our fire and laugh and be afraid.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.
    C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)
