“A sincere and steadfast co-operation in promoting such a reconstruction of our political system as would provide for the permanent liberty and happiness of the United States.”
—James Madison (17511836)
“So here they are, the dog-faced soldiers, the regulars, the fifty-cents-a-day professionals riding the outposts of the nation, from Fort Reno to Fort Apache, from Sheridan to Stark.

But wherever they rode and whatever they fought for, that place became the United States.”
—Frank S. Nugent (19081965)
“The real charm of the United States is that it is the only comic country ever heard of.”
