There is nothing here that's broken that can't be fixed, but it won't happen on its own. It's going to require a huge lift by the entire country of the United States of America and people on the ground taking personal responsibility for themselves. You cannot take it as a fait accompli that the city's going to come back.
Mitch Landrieu, American Politician (1960-  )

Christian Lous Lange, Norwegian Politician (1869-1938)
The theoretically unrestricted right to develop power, to wage war against other states, is antisocial and is doubly dangerous, because the state as a mass entity represents a low moral and intellectual level.
Christian Lous Lange, Norwegian Politician (1869-1938)
In particular, the efforts to reestablish peace after the World War have been directed toward the formation of states and the regulation of their frontiers according to a consciously national program.
Christian Lous Lange, Norwegian Politician (1869-1938)

Tom Lantos, American Diplomat (1928-2008)
Unlike any other business in the United States, sports must preserve an illusion of perfect innocence.
Lewis H. Lapham, American Editor (1935-  )
Methamphetamine is a highly dangerous drug that is wreaking havoc on families and communities throughout this country. The drug's use is spreading across the United States.
Rick Larsen, American Politician (1965-  )
If all the cars in the United States were placed end to end, it would probably be Labor Day Weekend.
Doug Larson, American Cartoonist
I shall hold myself particularly answerable to my constituents for my present conduct, and in general to all my fellow Citizens throughout these States, when properly questioned.
Henry Laurens, American Politician (1724-1792)
I am a subject of the British Crown, but whenever I have to choose between the interests of England and Canada it is manifest to me that the interests of my country are identical with those of the United States of America.
Wilfrid Laurier, Canadian Statesman (1841-1919)
Canadians look down on the United States and consider it Hell. They are right to do so. Canada is to the United States what, in Dante's scheme, Limbo is to Hell.
Irving Layton, Canadian Poet (1912-2006)
When I look at Social Security, I consider it the most important social program in the United States, arguably the most successful program in the world.
James A. Leach, American Politician (1942-  )

Patrick Leahy, American Politician (1940-  )
I would be with those who say the hierarchy in the United States has badly mishandled this whole situation.
William P. Leahy, American Educator
As I understand I took most so-called democratic states about 200 years on average to build their democracies. That is why, when we go to sleep under totalitarian rule and wake up in a democracy, it makes me laugh.
Aleksandr Lebed, Russian Politician (1950-2002)
I am convinced that military action will not prevent further acts of international terrorism against the United States.
Barbara Lee, American Politician (1946-  )
My parents were French and Irish and our family even has Spanish blood-and I do so love the United States and consider myself part American.
Vivien Leigh, English Actress (1913-1967)
Last night the United States dropped four 2,000 pound bombs on Saddam Hussein. I don't know anything about explosives, but, my God, do those things even need to explode?
