Famous quotes containing the word americans:

    “I wonder that we Americans love our country at all, it having no limits and no oneness; and when you try to make it a matter of the heart, everything falls away except one’s native State;Mneither can you seize hold of that, unless you tear it out of the Union, bleeding and quivering.”
    —Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804–1864)

    “One day my mother called me ... and she said, “Forty-nine million Americans saw you on television tonight. One of them is the father of my future grandchild, but he’s never going to call you because you wore your glasses.””
    —Lesley Stahl (b. 1941)

    “To Americans I hardly need to say,—
    “Westward the star of empire takes its way.””
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
