Famous quotes containing the words latin and/or american:
“But these young scholars, who invade our hills,
Bold as the engineer who fells the wood,
And travelling often in the cut he makes,
Love not the flower they pluck, and know it not
And all their botany is Latin names.
The old men studied magic in the flowers.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“It seems that American patriotism measures itself against an outcast group. The right Americans are the right Americans because theyre not like the wrong Americans, who are not really Americans.”
