One-third of the people in the United States promote, while the other two-thirds provide.

The United States strongly seeks a lasting agreement for the discontinuance of nuclear weapons tests. We believe that this would be an important step toward reduction of international tensions and would open the way to further agreement on substantial measures of disarmament.

The United States prefers that Iraq meet its obligations voluntarily, yet we are prepared for the alternative.

We must always remember that America is a great nation today not because of what government did for people but because of what people did for themselves and for one another.

I can’t imagine what this place would be – I can’t imagine what the country would be – with Donald Trump as our president.

The great thing about the United States and the historically magnetic effect it has had on a lot of people like me is its generosity, to put it simply.

I’ve tried different things through the years to get some play on mainstream. I’ll try to tailor-make it.

America doesn’t have health insurance.

A sincere and steadfast co-operation in promoting such a reconstruction of our political system as would provide for the permanent liberty and happiness of the United States.

The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion.

The people of Northern Ireland have sorted out my whole life.

Ohio claims they are due a president as they haven’t had one since Taft. Look at the United States, they have not had one since Lincoln.

Nowhere is it written that there must be conflict between the United States and China.

After all those years in Asia, I don’t have to do promotion anymore. We just release a Jackie Chan movie and – Boom! – people go.

I love being in the United States Senate.

Nobody wants to put the creditworthiness of the United States in jeopardy. Nobody wants to see the United States default. So we’ve got to seize this moment, and we have to seize it soon.

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.

When the Revolution triumphed in 1959, our island was a true Yankee colony. The United States had duped and disarmed our Liberation Army. One couldn’t speak of developed agriculture, but of immense plantations exploited on the base of manual and animal labour that in general used neither fertilizers nor machinery.

If the United States of America or Britain is having elections, they don’t ask for observers from Africa or from Asia. But when we have elections, they want observers.

When Britain and the U.S. invaded Iraq, it was with the reasonable expectation that it was going to increase the threat of terror, as it has.

I like working-class people, generally speaking.

The terrorists and their supporters declared war on the United States – and war is what they got.

We are a forward-looking people, and we must have a forward-looking government.

Government does not create wealth. The major role for the government is to create an environment where people take risks to expand the job rate in the United States.

There is not a liberal America and a conservative America – there is the United States of America. There is not a black America and a white America and latino America and asian America – there’s the United States of America.

This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it, or exercise their revolutionary right to overthrow it.

If you think the United States has stood still, who built the largest shopping center in the world?

I’m substantially concerned about the policy directions of the space agency. We have a situation in the U.S. where the White House and Congress are at odds over what the future direction should be. They’re sort of playing a game and NASA is the shuttlecock that they’re hitting back and forth.

Power has only one duty – to secure the social welfare of the People.

Advertising is the rattling of a stick inside a swill bucket.

Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable – a most sacred right – a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world.

I think America has always been polarized.

Liverpool people are famous for liking clothes and fashion; they are very social and lively people, and we know that they like clothes.

In France there are, I think, less than one per cent of people who are too skinny.

The only thing that could spoil a day was people. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.

I think people inspire me the most. If I meet a person who is incredibly complex, and all of a sudden, I start thinking in rhymes, that person could be a muse.

Technology is destructive only in the hands of people who do not realize that they are one and the same process as the universe.

Under the Timber and Stone Act of 1878, which might well have been called the ‚Dust and Ashes Act,‘ any citizen of the United States could take up one hundred and sixty acres of timber land and, by paying two dollars and a half an acre for it, obtain title.

People that seem so glorious are all show; underneath they are like everyone else.

The intelligence of the creature known as a crowd, is the square root of the number of people in it.

While the crash only took place six months ago, I am convinced we have now passed the worst, and with continued unity of effort, we shall rapidly recover. There is one certainty of the future of a people of the resources, intelligence and character of the people of the United States – that is, prosperity.

The people will save their government, if the government itself will allow them.

Most people want security in this world, not liberty.

I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.

The people who are absent are the ideal; those who are present seem to be quite commonplace.

Governments don’t control people like they used to.

How long will it take the citizens of the United States, one wonders, to recognize that the house their country bombed in Iraq is the same one they were living in until it was foreclosed?

I am quite serious when I say that I do not believe there are, on the whole earth besides, so many intensified bores as in these United States. No man can form an adequate idea of the real meaning of the word, without coming here.

People with courage and character always seem sinister to the rest.

I haven’t trusted polls since I read that 62% of women had affairs during their lunch hour. I’ve never met a woman in my life who would give up lunch for sex.

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government.

I like learning more about people; I like to talk to people.

I believe that in every country the people themselves are more peaceably and liberally inclined than their governments.

Washington isn’t a city, it’s an abstraction.

There are less than 1 per cent of anorexic girls, but there more than 30 per cent of girls in France – I don’t know about England – that are much, much overweight. And it is much more dangerous and very bad for the health.

Wives are people who feel they don’t dance enough.

All fiction is about people, unless it’s about rabbits pretending to be people. It’s all essentially characters in action, which means characters moving through time and changes taking place, and that’s what we call ‚the plot‘.

We’re running the company to serve more people.

The United States is not stingy. We are the greatest contributor to international relief efforts in the world.

It’s overwhelmingly in the self-interest of the United States of America to have a secure, democratic friend, a strategic partner like Israel.
