Famous quotes containing the word structure:

    With sixty staring me in the face, I have developed inflammation of the sentence structure and definite hardening of the paragraphs.

    Who says that fictions only and false hair
    Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?

    May no lines pass, except they do their duty
    Not to a true, but painted chair?
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    I really do inhabit a system in which words are capable of shaking the entire structure of government, where words can prove mightier than ten military divisions.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)
