    Metaphors of Organizations

    • 1235 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Metaphors of Organizations "All theories of organization and management are based on implicit images or metaphors that persuade us to see‚ understand‚ and imagine situations in partial ways.

Hence there can be no single theory or metaphor that gives an all-purpose point of view. There can be no ’correct theory ’ for structuring everything

    Sonnet 116 Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds‚ Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark‚ Whose worth’s unknown‚ although his height be taken. Love’s not Time’s fool‚ though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle’s compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks‚ But bears it out

    • 7 Pages

    order for a poem to be classified as a sonnet‚ it must meet certain structural requirements‚ and Sonnet 138‚ "When my love swears that she is made of truth‚" is a perfect example.

However‚ it would be an error to approach this poem as a traditional Shakespearean love sonnet. It is a ‘love’ poem in the sense that
