Famous quotes related to united states:

    The real charm of the United States is that it is the only comic country ever heard of.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    The United States never lost a war or won a conference.
    Will Rogers (1879–1935)

    The United States is not a nation to which peace is a necessity.
    Grover Cleveland (1837–1908)

    The rising power of the United States in world affairs ... requires, not a more compliant press, but a relentless barrage of facts and criticism.... Our job in this age, as I see it, is not to serve as cheerleaders for our side in the present world struggle but to help the largest possible number of people to see the realities of the changing and convulsive world in which American policy must operate.
    James Reston (b. 1909)

    I hate to do what everybody else is doing. Why, only last week, on Fifth Avenue and some cross streets, I noticed that every feminine citizen of these United States wore an artificial posy on her coat or gown. I came home and ripped off every one of the really lovely refrigerator blossoms that were sewn on my own bodices.
    Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
