America Quotes

The trouble with us in America isn,t that the poetry of life has turned to prose, but that it has turned to advertising copy Picture Quote #1

I’m pro-choice, pro-affirmative action, pro-environment and pro-labor. I was either going to be the loneliest Republican in America or I was going to be a happy Democrat Picture Quote #1

If American forces leave Afghanistan, the Taliban is going to do what to America? Don’t say you’re worried about what they will do to the Afghan people. If that was America’s concern, America’s operational presence there would be much different Picture Quote #1

‘Traveling While Black’ is about empathy, what African Americans experience in traveling throughout America, and how it hasn’t changed that much from the past. If it can be experienced in virtual reality, then perhaps some empathy can be gained Picture Quote #1

America has been very open to immigrants in terms of laws, getting loans - it has been helping immigrants more than it’s been helping African Americans in starting a small business. That’s key, whether you’re starting a restaurant or a laundromat Picture Quote #1

It’s fair to say that white America wouldn’t have elected an African-American president without the integrating effect of black music - from Louis Armstrong to hip-hop - and black drama and fiction, commercial as much as ‘serious.’ Picture Quote #1

Cumbia is a beautiful rhythm. It’s a music that has indigenous, African and European components. It’s played in all of America - from Argentina to the U.S. It has mutated and been nurtured by everyone who comes across it Picture Quote #1

Anyone who watches a lot of television, or listens to pop music, is familiar with a certain vision of America. If not exactly colorblind, this America is one in which different races easily interact, in which a white person might have an Asian boss, Hispanic stepson, or African-American frenemy Picture Quote #1

A lot of my work reflects the incredible influence that America has had on contemporary African culture. Some of it’s insidious, some of it’s innocuous, some of it’s invisible. It’s there Picture Quote #1

Africa is going through its own historical process of state formation just as Europe and America did. It is just happening much later than other continents because of the interruption of Africa’s own historical development by the colonization of Africa by Europe Picture Quote #1

Our acquisition strategy is very clear: 3x3. Three continents - Asia, Africa and South America, and in three categories where we have strong positions - personal wash, household care and hair care Picture Quote #1

I was reading books about the Nazi presence not only in Argentina, but all over Latin America, and time and after time this information would come up Picture Quote #1

Call it Camelot’s revenge: the class of court scribes who made it their profession to uphold a make-believe version of America free of conflict and ruled by noble men helped Nixon get away with it for so long - because, after all, America was ruled by noble men Picture Quote #1

Even here in America, people are fighting for civil rights 45 years after the civil rights movement Picture Quote #1

America was named after a man who discovered no part of the New World. History is like that, very chancy Picture Quote #1

The separating of a section of America for Afro- Americans is similar to expecting a heaven in the sky somewhere after you die Picture Quote #1

To stand up for peace and against war and for disarmament is very courageous here in America Picture Quote #1

America, you’re sending girls a mixed message. On one hand, you’re saying to have positive body image and love who we are; on the other, we’re being marketed makeup and clothing that obviously turns us into someone different Picture Quote #1

Doing difficult things like passing marriage equality, passing the Dream Act, doing common sense things that allow new American immigrants to fully participate, pay their taxes, play by the rules and take care of their families. That’s the inclusive America that I believe all of us want to move to Picture Quote #1

Children under five are the poorest age group in America, and one in four infants, toddlers and preschoolers are poor during the years of greatest brain development Picture Quote #1

America doesn’t reward people of my age, either in day-to-day life or for their performances Picture Quote #1

I think people in America have had enough, and Donald Trump’s the change agent Picture Quote #1

A country that cannot feed itself cannot have self-pride, and in the mid- 60s 20 percent of all the wheat produced in America came into India. We were agriculturally a basket case. And 15 years later, 20 years later, we have become an agricultural power. This is the famous Green Revolution Picture Quote #1

I’d love to talk to Janeane Garafalo or Randi Rhodes or Stephanie Miller from Air America. I’m an Air American junkie; I listen to them every day Picture Quote #1

I reflect back 35 years ago, and look how far we have come in America with our environmental policy to improve the conditions of our air and water, and we have had some real successes Picture Quote #1

One of the pillars of backward thinking in America is the idea that you can have jobs or you can have clean air and water, but you can’t have both. That myth has been busted a thousand times, but still it lives on Picture Quote #1

I think of America not so much as a single country but as a constellation of groups out there competing for air time, energetically expressing themselves and luxuriating in their right to govern themselves. Freedom is that great vaunted word that’s always applied to our country - and rightly so Picture Quote #1

The only thing to be said for air travel is speed. It makes possible travel on a scale unimaginable before our present age. Between the ages of 20 and four-score I visited every country in Europe, all save two in Latin America, ditto in Africa, and most of Asia, not counting eight trips to Australia and 60 to the United States - all by air Picture Quote #1

I don’t enjoy traveling in America. I don’t like the food, the cars. It is not exotic enough. It all tastes a bit like airline food Picture Quote #1

Al Qaeda, the Taliban, a whole host of networks that are bent on attacking America, who have a distorted ideology, who have perverted the faith of Islam, and so we have to go after them Picture Quote #1
