United States Dollars

Famous quotes containing the words united states, united, states and/or dollars:

    What chiefly distinguishes the daily press of the United States from the press of all other countries is not its lack of truthfulness or even its lack of dignity and honor, for these deficiencies are common to the newspapers everywhere, but its incurable fear of ideas, its constant effort to evade the discussion of fundamentals by translating all issues into a few elemental fears, its incessant reduction of all reflection to mere emotion. It is, in the true sense, never well-informed.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    All comes united to th’ admiring eyes;
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

And must the pendulum always swing back in the busy world of work and workers during times of peace?
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    To be a poor man is hard, but to be a poor race in a land of dollars is the very bottom of hardships.
    —W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)
