Famous quotes containing the words neutral and/or element:

    The United States must be neutral in fact as well as in name....

    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    The element running through entire nature, which we popularly call Fate, is known to us as limitation. Whatever limits us, we call Fate.
