Active Ingredients

Famous quotes containing the words active and/or ingredients:

    I have ever deemed it fundamental for the United States never to take active part in the quarrels of Europe. Their political interests are entirely distinct from ours. Their mutual jealousies, their balance of power, their complicated alliances, their forms and principles of government, are all foreign to us. They are nations of eternal war.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    This even-handed justice
    Commends th’ ingredients of our poisoned chalice
    To our own lips.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
