Amerikāņiem piemīt liela nelaime. Viņi ir bara cilvēki. Viņi grib iet uz augšu pūļos un tāpēc arī laižas dibenā baros, cits aiz cita kā auni, Tā tas te gājis no zeltraču laikiem līdz lielajai depresijai un šodienai. Cilvēkam, kam pietiek dūšas būt drusku savādākam nekā citi, šinī zemē ir laba un ērta dzīve.

Anšlavs Eglītis

The Europeans hate us because we’ve retired to live inside our advertisements, like hermits going into caves to contemplate. We sleep in symbolic bedrooms, eat symbolic meals, are symbolically entertained- and that terrifies them, that fills them with fury and loathing because they can never understand it.

Christopher Isherwood

In the old Republican days the subject of slavery and of the saving of the Union made appeals to the consciences and liberty-loving instincts of the people. These later years have been full of talk about commerce and dinner pails, but I feel sure that the American conscience and the American love of liberty have not been smothered. They will break through this crust of sordidness and realize that those only keep their liberties who accord liberty to others.

Benjamin Harrison
