Famous quotes containing the words united states, ghana, united and/or states:

    The recognition of Russia on November 16, 1933, started forces which were to have considerable influence in the attempt to collectivize the United States.
    Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)

    While the rest of the world has been improving technology, Ghana has been improving the quality of man’s humanity to man.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    The white American man makes the white American woman maybe not superfluous but just a little kind of decoration. Not really important to turning around the wheels of the state. Well the black American woman has never been able to feel that way. No black American man at any time in our history in the United States has been able to feel that he didn’t need that black woman right against him, shoulder to shoulder—in that cotton field, on the auction block, in the ghetto, wherever.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    My opinion is that the Northern states will manage somehow to muddle through.
    John Bright (1811–1889)
