Nations High Commissioner

Famous quotes containing the words nations and/or high:

“Of all the nations in the world, the United States was built in nobody’s image. It was the land of the unexpected, of unbounded hope, of ideals, of quest for an unknown perfection. It is all the more unfitting that we should offer ourselves in images. And all the more fitting that the images which we make wittingly or unwittingly to sell America to the world should come back to haunt and curse us.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

“How tall the buildings were as I began
To live, and how high the rain that battered them!”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
