Text Quotes
Have you ever heard one civilized person whose opinion you respect, at any time, anywhere, in any civilized country anywhere, say the good new days?  (Country Quotes) Who would prefer peace to the glory of hunger and thirst, of wading through mud, and dying in the service of one’s country?  (Country Quotes) For those at home, as well as for those in battle, war is curiously disabling. The mere realization that one’s country is at war poisons the bloodstream, creates an incessant mood of worry that infiltrates even the most casual moments  (Country Quotes) The country is laid out in a haphazard, sloppy fashion, offensive to the tidy, organized mind  (Country Quotes) Our country asserts for itself the glory of being the freest upon the surface of the globe... but one dark spot still dimmed its lustre. Domestic slavery existed among a people who had themselves disdained to submit to a master  (Country Quotes) Naturally, the common people don’t want war... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country  (Country Quotes) Football is a metaphor for the kind of country we want to create. It’s based on merit  (Country Quotes) The bond between a man and his profession is similar to that which ties him to his country; it is just as complex, often ambivalent, and in general it is understood completely only when it is broken: by exile or emigration in the case of one’s country, by retirement in the case of a trade or profession  (Country Quotes) I see nothing in the present situation that is either menacing or warrants pessimism... I have every confidence that there will be a revival of activity in the spring, and that during this coming year the country will make steady progress  (Country Quotes) If the newspapers of a country are filled with good news, the jails of that country will be filled with good people  (Country Quotes) Luckless is the country in which the symbols of procreation are the objects of shame, while the agents of destruction are honored! And yet you call that member your pudendum, or shameful part, as if there were anything more glorious than creating life, or anything more atrocious than taking it away  (Country Quotes) Thus we see that the all important thing is not killing or giving life, drinking or not drinking, living in the town or the country, being unlucky or lucky, winning or losing. It is how we win, how we lose, how we live or die, finally, how we choose  (Country Quotes) When statesmen forsake their own private conscience for the sake of their public duties, they lead their country by a short route to chaos  (Country Quotes) It is not heroin or cocaine that makes one an addict, it is the need to escape from a harsh reality. There are more television addicts, more baseball and football addicts, more movie addicts, and certainly more alcohol addicts in this country than there are narcotics addicts  (Country Quotes) The wealth and prosperity of the country are only the comeliness of the body, the fullness of the flesh and fat; but the spirit is independent of them; it requires only muscle, bone and nerve for the true exercise of its functions. We cannot lose our liberty, because we cannot cease to think  (Country Quotes) I’ve run less risk driving my way across country than eating my way across it  (Country Quotes) Country people tend to consider that they have a corner on righteousness and to distrust most manifestations of cleverness, while people in the city are leery of righteousness but ascribe to themselves all manner of cleverness  (Country Quotes) What this country needs is more people to inspire others with confidence, and fewer people to discourage any initiative in the right direction more to get into the thick of things, fewer to sit on the sidelines, merely finding fault more to point out what’s right with the world, and fewer to keep harping on what’s wrong with it and more who are interested in lighting candles, and fewer who blow them out  (Country Quotes) To read the papers and to listen to the news... one would think the country is in terrible trouble. You do not get that impression when you travel the back roads and the small towns do care about their country and wish it well  (Country Quotes) When will the state of the country be sound?... When its people believe that the end result of cowardice is more disastrous than that of behaving with integrity  (Country Quotes) This is, I say, the time for all good men not to go to the aid of their party, but to come to the aid of their country  (Country Quotes) ... I realized that there was a thrilling undiscovered country to be explored in the mechanisms of the mammalian nervous system. Through it, one might approach the mystery of the mind  (Country Quotes) Language is the expression of ideas, and if the people of one country cannot preserve an identity of ideas they cannot retain an identity of language  (Country Quotes) A protected bicycle lane in the city in a developing country is a powerful symbol, showing that a citizen on the $30 bicycle is as important as one in a $30,000 car  (Country Quotes) In a free country there is much clamor, with little suffering; in a despotic state there is little complaint, with much grievance  (Country Quotes) If country life be healthful to the body, it is no less so to the mind  (Country Quotes) The city does not take away, neither does the country give, solitude; solitude is within us  (Country Quotes) Doctors and nurses, with their training and their experiences, they would be able to detect unusual patterns of disease. That’s why we say it is important for every country to have a proper surveillance system. The function of the surveillance system is to detect unusual patterns of diseases  (Country Quotes) For the undocumented immigrants, the big priority is just to get out from the shadows, be able to get a driver’s license, buy an airplane ticket and stop worrying about sudden deportation. But for the country as a whole, it’s crucial that everybody have a citizen’s stake in the nation’s welfare  (Country Quotes) American businesses and upper incomes pay a larger portion of the federal taxes of our national taxes than any country in the world  (Country Quotes)
