A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
People in so many countries look up to the United States as a model of democracy, but I doubt if that can continue. It leaves me with a great sense of loss.
Bianca Jagger, Nicaraguan Celebrity (1945-  )
It is over one hundred years since the abolition of slavery. The Negro people in the United States have taken plenty and they have reached a stage where they have decided that they are not going to take any more.
C. L. R. James, Journalist (1901-1989)
The late development of mass industrial organization in the United States has both stimulated and retarded the political development of the American working class.
C. L. R. James, Journalist (1901-1989)
The United States has made a massive effort since the end of the Second World War to secure the dominance of its films in foreign markets - an achievement generally pushed home politically, by writing clauses into various treaties and aid packages.
Fredric Jameson, American Critic (1934-  )
Left the ranch in 1883, went to California, going through the States and territories, reached Ogden the latter part of 1883, and San Francisco in 1884.
Calamity Jane, American Soldier (1852-1903)
In the United States, there one feels free... Except from the Americans - but every pearl has its oyster.
Randall Jarrell, American Poet (1914-1965)
The United States is a strong and ardent ally of Israel. The fact of the matter is that friends can disagree. I think what's important is that world leaders are able to sit down with one another, have frank conversations and move forward.
Valerie Jarrett, American Lawyer (1956-  )
The constitutions of most of our States assert that all power is inherent in the people; that... it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.
Thomas Jefferson, American President (1743-1826)
I am mortified to be told that, in the United States of America, the sale of a book can become a subject of inquiry, and of criminal inquiry too.
Thomas Jefferson, American President (1743-1826)
Many states rely on sales tax as their principle source of revenue and do not have a State income tax.
William L. Jenkins, American Politician (1936-  )
We asked ourselves and the world to base decisions on good science, and I really believe the United States can be the leader in delivering that message to our international trading partners.
Mike Johanns, American Politician (1950-  )
I am a freeman, an American, a United States Senator, and a Democrat, in that order.
Lyndon B. Johnson, American President (1908-1973)
It is important that the United States remain a two-party system. I'm a fellow who likes small parties and the Republican Party can't be too small to suit me.
Lyndon B. Johnson, American President (1908-1973)
The men who have guided the destiny of the United States have found the strength for their tasks by going to their knees. This private unity of public men and their God is an enduring source of reassurance for the people of America.
Lyndon B. Johnson, American President (1908-1973)
I asked a man in prison once how he happened to be there and he said he had stolen a pair of shoes. I told him if he had stolen a railroad he would be a United States Senator.
Mary Harris Jones, American Activist (1837-1930)
I never knew when I was gong to leave. I might be walking over to a kid's house, then of all a sudden I would just stick out my thumb and hitchhike across three states.
Rickie Lee Jones, American Musician (1954-  )
There is no executive order; there is no law that can require the American people to form a national community. This we must do as individuals and if we do it as individuals, there is no President of the United States who can veto that decision.
Barbara Jordan, American Lawyer (1936-1996)
And a tiny number of people in a few states make these decisions, and we're left with these options that are increasingly not attractive to the American people.
Hamilton Jordan, American Civil Servant (1944-  )
In the report made on behalf of the C.G.T. we affirmed that the Peace Treaty should, in accordance with the spirit of workers' organizations, lay the first foundations of the United States of Europe.
Leon Jouhaux, French Leader (1879-1954)
Stuart Davis has more to do with what the United States is like than Hopper.
Donald Judd, American Artist (1928-1994)
