Famous quotes containing the words gender, neutral and/or language:
“But there, where I have garnered up my heart,
Where either I must live or bear no life;
The fountain from the which my current runs

Or keep it as a cistern for foul toads
To knot and gender in!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
