From the Back Cover
A spirited and wide-ranging collection drawn from the rich and colorful American tapestry that will inspire, provoke, amuse, entertain, energize, and enrich any reader."You can get more with a nice word and a gun than you can with a nice word."-Al Capone"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."-Neil A. Armstrong"There is no king who has not had a slave among his ancestors, and no slave who has not had a king among his."-Helen Keller"I have found out in later years we were very poor, but the glory of America is that we didn't know it then."-Dwight D. Eisenhower"All I was doing was trying to get home from work."-Rosa ParksDespite its widely varied geography and melting pot population, the United States has forged a spirit in its people that is uniquely, well, American. It is more than a simple sense of place. Born of a sense of adventure, of enterprise and optimism, of the search for freedom, that spirit has long inspired people the world over, drawn millions to its shores, and sparked admiring imitation, perhaps even envy. The Quotable American captures that spirit: hopeful, wry, irreverent, democratic, unpretentious, funny, resolute, ambitious, and tenacious.The Quotable American brings together the richest examples of that color, wit, and depth. It is the best of the best. And while selections or omissions just might spark some argument (And why not? It's one of the things Americans do best), what you'll find here is nothing but pure entertainment and inspiration.
