This election is about who’s going to be the next President of the United States!
Dan QuayleUnder 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.
John MuirIn order for the United States to do the right things for the long term, it appears to be helpful for us to have the prospect of humiliation. Sputnik helped us fund good science – really good science: the semiconductor came out of it.
Bill GatesUndoubtedly, the U.S. harbors leading international terrorists, people described by the F.B.I. and the Justice Department as leading terrorists, like Orlando Bosch, now Posada Carriles, not to speak of those who actually implement state terrorism.
Noam ChomskyI love being in the United States Senate.
John KennedyIt may be the cock that crows, but it is the hen that lays the eggs.
Margaret ThatcherHomeland or death! Socialism or death! We shall overcome!
Fidel CastroWe always live in an uncertain world. What is certain is that the United States will go forward over time.
Warren BuffettEvery time there has been an effort by the Haitian people to overcome the misery and poverty that comes from 200 years of bitter attacks, really bitter, the U.S. steps in and blocks it.
Noam ChomskyYesterday, December seventh, 1941, a date which will live in infamy, the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. We will gain the inevitable triumph, so help us God.
Franklin D. RooseveltBy disgracing and degrading the presidency of the United States, by fleeing the White House like a diseased cur, Richard Nixon broke the heart of the American Dream.
Hunter S. ThompsonAt first, I was called a quack, a charlatan, and worse, year after year, in Australia, England and the United States, by men who simply refused to believe that a nurse from ‚the bush‘ could devise a treatment which succeeded where they had failed.
Elizabeth KennyThe happy Union of these States is a wonder; their Constitution a miracle; their example the hope of Liberty throughout the world.
James MadisonThanh Hoa itself is a rich agricultural province. Rice fields, a pattern of many shades of green, stretch far into the distance along the road, which also winds through foothills and the fringes of heavy jungle where tigers are said to roam. The vegetation, wild or cultivated, is lush.
Noam ChomskyInferiors revolt in order that they may be equal, and equals that they may be superior. Such is the state of mind which creates revolutions.
AristotleWe have the oldest written constitution still in force in the world, and it starts out with three words, ‚We, the people.‘
Ruth Bader GinsburgFrom my intimate discussions with President Obama, it is evident that India figures significantly in American geo-political, economic and strategic thinking. India is the largest democracy in the world.
Narendra ModiGod isn’t compatible with machinery and scientific medicine and universal happiness. You must make your choice. Our civilization has chosen machinery and medicine and happiness.
Aldous HuxleyI consider myself to be as informed on American foreign policy as anyone in America.
Joe BidenOhio 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.
Will RogersThe United States was seriously defeated in Iraq by Iraqi nationalism – mostly by nonviolent resistance. The United States could kill the insurgents, but they couldn’t deal with half a million people demonstrating in the streets.
Noam ChomskyAgriculture not only gives riches to a nation, but the only riches she can call her own.
Samuel JohnsonHow wonderful it is to be an American. We have known the best of times and the worst of times.
Maya AngelouI don’t think it is so difficult to solve the problems between Cuba and the United States; it all depends on whether there is a dialogue, a discussion, or if the prejudices and hatred of people like the extremists and terrorists from the Cuban community, who try to impose their policies, prevail.
Fidel CastroAmerica doesn’t have health insurance.
Joe BidenPassion is needed for any great work, and for the revolution, passion and audacity are required in big doses.
Che GuevaraLadies and gentlemen, god bless America – land of the free, home of the brave.
Dave GrohlWe do not rejoice in victories. We rejoice when a new kind of cotton is grown and when strawberries bloom in Israel.
Golda MeirWhile 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.
Herbert HooverThe more the division of labor and the application of machinery extend, the more does competition extend among the workers, the more do their wages shrink together.
Karl MarxThe walls, the bars, the guns and the guards can never encircle or hold down the idea of the people.
Huey NewtonI can’t imagine what this place would be – I can’t imagine what the country would be – with Donald Trump as our president.
Ruth Bader GinsburgThe United States is afraid of China; it is not a military threat to anyone and is the least aggressive of all the major military powers.
Noam ChomskyOf all the men that have run for president in the twentieth century, only George McGovern truly understood what a monument America could be to the human race.
Hunter S. ThompsonIf we want to reduce poverty and misery, if we want to give to every deserving individual what is needed for a safe existence of an intelligent being, we want to provide more machinery, more power. Power is our mainstay, the primary source of our many-sided energies.
Nikola TeslaThe United States is a nation of laws: badly written and randomly enforced.
Frank ZappaNobody 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.
Barack ObamaThe United States is not stingy. We are the greatest contributor to international relief efforts in the world.
Colin PowellNo thieves, no traitors, no interventionists! This time the revolution is for real!
Fidel CastroMethods of thought which claim to give the lead to our world in the name of revolution have become, in reality, ideologies of consent and not of rebellion.
Albert CamusI think that slavery is wrong, morally, socially and politically. I desire that it should be no further spread in these United States, and I should not object if it should gradually terminate in the whole Union.
Abraham LincolnGreece has been, in many ways, a partially dysfunctional society. For example, the wealthy barely pay taxes… to an extent, that’s true elsewhere, including the United States, but it’s been pretty extreme in Greece.
Noam ChomskySurveys show our standing around the world is higher than when I was elected to this office, and when it comes to every important international issue, people of the world do not look to Beijing or Moscow to lead – they call us.
Barack ObamaMy fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.
John F. KennedyIf you destroyed half the pharmaceutical production in the United States, we’d think it’s a pretty serious problem. In fact, we’d probably go to war.
Noam ChomskyYou are twice as likely to be struck by lightning as you around to be affected by a terrorist event in the United States.
Joe BidenI don’t have freedom in the United States to go into a public school and preach the Gospel, nor is a student free in a public school to pray, or a teacher free to read the Bible publicly to the students. At the same time, we have a great degree of freedom for which I am grateful.
Billy GrahamThe nation that destroys its soil destroys itself.
Franklin D. RooseveltAll the United States, it is a society that is split like to the bottom, that had very poor people in the country that is one of the wealthiest countries.
Desmond TutuPeople seem to know about May Day everywhere except where it began, here in the United States of America. That’s because those in power have done everything they can to erase its real meaning.
Noam ChomskyNo advance in wealth, no softening of manners, no reform or revolution has ever brought human equality a millimeter nearer.
George OrwellIf you get to a point where the existing institutions will not bend to the popular will, you have to eliminate the institutions.
Noam ChomskyIf you’re in favour of any policy – reform, revolution, stability, regression, whatever – if you’re at least minimally moral, it’s because you think it’s somehow good for people. And good for people means conforming to their fundamental nature.
Noam ChomskyI do not look upon these United States as a finished product. We are still in the making.
Franklin D. RooseveltRight now, when we’re hearing so much disturbing and hateful rhetoric, it is so important to remember that our diversity has been – and will always be – our greatest source of strength and pride here in the United States.
Michelle ObamaFour legs good, two legs bad.
George OrwellThe United States is a violent military state. It’s been involved in military action all over the place.
Noam ChomskyThe notion that it is improper to look beyond the borders of the United States in grappling with hard questions has a certain kinship to the view that the U.S. Constitution is a document essentially frozen in time as of the date of its ratification.
Ruth Bader GinsburgWhat is a farm but a mute gospel?
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe American doctor, in my opinion, possesses a combination of conservatism and that other quality which has put the United States in the forefront in almost every department of science – that is, an eagerness to know what it is really all about in order that he may not be the one left behind if there is something to it.
Elizabeth Kenny
