Nation Quotes

A nation that turns away from prayer will ultimately find itself in desperate need of it Picture Quote #1

A small group is powerful in matters relating to a particular industry, because then it is normally the only organized force, but it is less formidable when questions which divide the entire nation are involved, for then it must take on organized labor and other large organized groups. The business community in the aggregate is for this reason not uniquely effective as a pressure group Picture Quote #1

A land full of places that are not worth caring about may soon be a nation and a way of life that is not worth defending Picture Quote #1

If you want to destroy any nation without war, make adultery or nudity common in the young generation Picture Quote #1

When you fight, you don’t fight for abstract values like the flag, or the nation, or democracy. You fight for your buddy. You fight to keep him alive, and he fights to keep you alive, and you go on that way, day after day, battle after battle. And when one of your buddies dies, something inside you dies as well. But you go on. You fight, so that his death isn’t meaningless, his sacrifice isn’t for nothing Picture Quote #1

A citizen of an advanced industrialized nation consumes in six months the energy and raw materials that have to last the citizen of a developing country his entire lifetime Picture Quote #1

The advertising man is a liaison between the products of business and the mind of the nation. He must know both before he can serve either Picture Quote #1

Football’s the biggest game in the world. America’s the greatest sporting nation there is. To play some part in putting those two things together: why wouldn’t I be excited about that? Picture Quote #1

I have lived with my husband more than I have with my parents... I live beside him, and know his worries, his hopes, and his dreams for his nation. We believe that things happen by design, not in an arbitrary way. And we believe it is our duty to make things happen Picture Quote #1

Forgetfulness, and I would even say historical error, are essential in the creation of a nation Picture Quote #1

Teachers are directed to instruct their pupils... and to awaken in them a sense of their responsibility toward the community of the nation Picture Quote #1

Wolves are not our brothers; they are not our subordinates, either. They are another nation, caught up just like us in the complex web of time and life Picture Quote #1

The sheer folly of trying to defend a nation by destroying all life on the planet must be apparent to anyone capable of rational thought. Nuclear capability must be reduced to zero, globally, permanently. There is no other option Picture Quote #1

The real wealth of a nation is its people. And the purpose of development is to create an enabling environment for people to enjoy long, healthy, and creative lives. This simple but powerful truth is too often forgotten in the pursuit of material and financial wealth Picture Quote #1

What we miss is how unsustainable that is. Even bigger is the idea that we as a nation are not made up of businesses, banks, malls, markets, homes or things. Our greatest asset is ourselves: our lives and our people. The real investment should be there Picture Quote #1

Economic and social misery increases in direct proportion to the size and power of the central government of a nation or state Picture Quote #1

When corruption is king, there is no accountability of leadership and no trust in authority. Society devolves to the basic units of family and self, to the basic instincts of getting what you can when you can, because you don’t believe anything better will ever come along. And when the only horizon is tomorrow, how can you care about the kind of nation you are building for your children and your grandchildren? How can you call on your government to address what ails society and build stronger institutions? Picture Quote #1

The 19th century was a century of empires, the 20th century was a century of nation states. The 21st century will be a century of cities Picture Quote #1

I don’t have to be nice to people who are causing great damage to the nation Picture Quote #1

As one grows older, the sense of separateness is slowly reduced. Old people do not live on an ego level. Their concerns are not about their individuality but about the river of life, the family, the community, the nation, people, animals, nature, life. They can die easily if they are assured that life will continue positively, for they feel part of the river again, and soon they will be part of the ocean. When they are very old, they no longer belong to our time and space, but to all time and all space Picture Quote #1

From early on I valued the gift of memory above all others. I understood that as we grow older we carry a whole nation around inside of us, places and ways that have disappeared, believing that they are ours, that we alone hold the torch for our past, that we are as impenetrable as stone Picture Quote #1

In a nation that has developed to a high art advertising, the creator who refuses to advertise himself is immediately suspected of having no product worth selling Picture Quote #1

Ah, woman. She is an enigma. An anomaly of perfection and irony. She can lure angels into her arms and give birth to a nation of ideologies Picture Quote #1

America remembers. On this 12th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, the nation honors those who were lost Picture Quote #1

The children of any nation are its future. A country, a movement, a person that does not value its youth and children does not deserve its future Picture Quote #1

The new program for children in failing schools will be the largest statewide school choice program in the nation. The creation of that program plus the expansion of two others illustrates that states with the greatest experience with school choice are the most likely to expand it Picture Quote #1
