My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.
We're gonna go America all over their asses!
Sure I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and all the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.
There's something weird about every family. That's what makes America great.
Our Country won't go on forever, if we stay soft as we are now. There won't

I always consider the settlement of America with reverence and wonder, as the opening of a grand scene and design in providence, for the illumination of the ignorant and the emancipation of the slavish part of mankind all over the earth.
Our American values are not luxuries but necessities, not the salt in our bread, but the bread itself. Our common vision of a free and just society is our greatest source of cohesion at home and strength abroad, greater than the bounty of our material blessings.
The thing that impresses me the most about America is the way parents obey their children.
Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy.
