Text Quotes
Unlike the Afghans and Iraqis, the South Korean people solidly supported the American military presence, which was part of a United Nations operation.  (American Quotes) The American military generally counts on a kill ratio of 10 to 1 when fighting lightly armed insurgents: for every dead American, there are probably 10 dead enemy.  (American Quotes) In the Marine Corps, you meet this really broad segment of the country; you’re working with people from all kinds of backgrounds. And it exposes you to the American military, particularly the American military at war.  (American Quotes) In American military cemeteries all over the world, seemingly endless rows of whitened grave markers stand largely unvisited and in silence. The gardeners tend the lawns, one section at a time. Even at the famous sites, tourism is inconstant.  (American Quotes) Ronald Reagan in foreign affairs, I think, was someone who had certain, very general ideas, general propositions by which he lives: To combat communism, to build up the American military power to assure our national security against any conceivable threat.  (American Quotes) In committing an estimated 3,000 U.S. forces to join international Ebola relief efforts in West Africa, President Obama seems to be fulfilling the plans of highly influential progressive groups who seek to transform the American military into more of a social-work organization.  (American Quotes) I learned to be far more skeptical of what I’m told by presidents, no matter who the presidents are, and also to be much more cautious, always, in any action or vote that could lead to the use of American military power and most particularly what we call ‘boots on the ground.’  (American Quotes) Want to depose the government of a poor country with resources? Want to bash Muslims? Want to build support for American military interventions around the world? Want to undermine governments that are raising their people up from poverty because they don’t conform to the tastes of Upper West Side intellectuals? Use human rights as your excuse!  (American Quotes) Many in the U.S. military believe ISIS needs to be immediately, and repeatedly, smashed by American drones and warplanes.  (American Quotes) Once the war against Saddam begins, we expect every American to support our military, and if they can’t do that, to shut Up.  (American Quotes) Smart power’ is the use of American power in ways that would help prevent and resolve conflict - not just send our military in.  (American Quotes) The only one benefiting from this, the American taxpayer, almost half of our taxes, our income taxes, are going to the military and to these wars.  (American Quotes) We will continue to deepen our engagement using every element of American power - diplomacy, military, economic development, the power of our values and our ideals.  (American Quotes) I proposed a law that every country where the U.S. has a military base - those people should be allowed to vote in the American election.  (American Quotes) Fourth, we might have declared an embargo against the shipping from American ports of any merchandise to either one of these governments that persisted in maintaining its military zone.  (American Quotes) Where journalists have gotten themselves in trouble over the last few decades is that their skepticism often extends only to American officials, the U.S. military and Republican politicians.  (American Quotes) I think that if you do an American movie it’s important to earn some money, but in a stupid way, to be respected.  (American Quotes) I didn’t go to Paris until I was a grown-up in 1965. And when I went to Paris, it was the Paris I knew only from American movies.  (American Quotes) Big hooks have always been a part of American movie-making. So, to make a movie where you’re just driving story through the characters without a high-concept is a challenge.  (American Quotes) When we came to America, the movies here needed a new wave. European films looked totally different than American movies, which were these lush, glossy pictures with this elaborate production design.  (American Quotes) Hollywood is a symbol of global movies, it’s not just American movies. It’s become a platform and a melting pot; it’s for all the talents and capital from all over the globe.  (American Quotes) One thing I don’t understand is that average American movie-goers cannot watch a movie for three hours, yet they’ll watch a stupid, boring, horrific football game for four hours. Now, that is boredom at its most colossal.  (American Quotes) It’s funny, I started by making fake American movies, ‘The Transporter’ and stuff like that. I was shooting in France, but everything was in English. But then afterwards, I was looking at real French movies like the Jacques Audiard movies.  (American Quotes) In the late 1930s, both the British and American movie industries made a succession of films celebrating the decency of the British Empire in order to challenge the threatening tide of Nazism and fascism and also to provide employment for actors from Los Angeles’s British colony. The best two were Hollywood’s Gunga Din and Britain’s The Four Feathers.  (American Quotes) Not disown my past or upbringing, but I’d admired American actors, really American movie star - particularly the rebel heroes of the 50s.  (American Quotes) Shall We Dance?’ takes a small, exquisite Japanese movie and turns it into a big, stupid American movie. Still, it must be said that as glossy and overproduced as the thing is, it’s a good big, stupid American movie.  (American Quotes) I’m a singer and working on my second album. I write and produce. There is so much more that satisfies me. So there’s not just this one ambition to become an American movie star. Because I will never become an American movie star.  (American Quotes) I would like to perform more in English. But there have to be many good things gathered for me to be willing to do a movie. I watch trailers of every new American movie and I’m, like, ‘OK, I’m not missing anything!’  (American Quotes) I want to continue to make beautiful movies. The most important thing is to be a part of beautiful stories, that’s all I want. So I don’t care if it’s a Hollywood movie or an independent movie or a Spanish or American movie. I care about telling stories.  (American Quotes) Diary of a Teenage Girl’ was my first American movie. It was my first movie in an American accent. It’s based on a graphic novel, which was written in 2002 by someone called Phoebe Gloeckner. It was turned into a play by Marielle Heller, who then wrote it as a screenplay for Sundance Labs.  (American Quotes)
