Famous quotes containing the word response:
“There is ... but one response possible from us: Force, Force to the uttermost, Force without stint or limit, the righteous and triumphant Force which shall make Right the law of the world and cast every selfish dominion down in the dust.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

—Russell Hoban (b. 1925)

—Mary Arrigo (20th century)
