Central American

Famous quotes containing the words central and/or american:

“For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)

“Resolve to win—period—because that is the American system. You take either side—it doesn’t even matter which one—and you go on the attack.”
