Famous quotes containing the word intense:

    Holland is a land of intense paradox. It is quite impossible, but it is there.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    I have an intense personal interest in making the use of American capital in the development of China an instrument for the promotion of the welfare of China, and an increase in her material prosperity without entanglements or creating embarrassment affecting the growth of her independent political power, and the preservation of her territorial integrity.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
