America is not just ordsprog
America is not just a power, it is a promise. It is not enough for our country to be extraordinary in might; it must be exemplary in meaning.

It captures a sense of what extraordinary history this has through the old ships, the tall ships. At the same time it emphasizes the extraordinary present-day relevance of naval power. Seventy percent of the globe is water, and we're able to operate from the sea everywhere. The Navy really is everywhere for America.
Richard Danzig
This has extraordinary significance in its own right: Chris will be the second most powerful person in the largest city in America. In terms of raw political power, the size of the city budget and the Council's powers, she will become the most powerful openly lesbian or gay official in the country.

The impact of Latin America on the United States is extraordinary, but sometimes ignored by policy makers. This program will help Latin America receive the recognition it deserves in the formation of our country.
Steven Thompson
We can't close the great divides in this country in a day, just like we can't end poverty in a night. But we're going to start by speaking truth to power. America is not America when millions of our citizens are still viewed as a fraction of a person.
Marc Morial
On behalf of the board of education, I offer congratulations for this wonderful recognition, ... We are proud of the music program in the district. It is an exemplary program, an exemplary school and an exemplary district.

We work to make this country the kind of America they (U.S. veterans) were willing to die for, ... That's an America where the idea of sacred honor still has the power to stir men's souls. My solitary, solitary hope is that 100 years from today people will look back at what we've done and say, 'They kept the faith.'
Henry Hyde
I'm honored to join the extraordinary team you've assembled to lead America. The size and scope of this challenge are immense ... an extraordinary mission. But we will carry it out.

The secret point of money and power in America is neither the things that money can buy nor power for power's sake... but absolute personal freedom, mobility, privacy. It is the instinct which drove America to the Pacific, all through the nineteenth century, the desire to be able to find a restaurant open in case you want a sandwich, to be a free agent, live by one's own rules.
Joan Didion

We lost an extraordinary judge, an extraordinary member of the Supreme Court, someone who has had a profound impact on this country and its legal system,
Tom Daschle
A 19th?century European in a comparable position would have needed extraordinary privilege ? such as royalty ? or extraordinary wealth. Europeans are fascinated with Lincoln because he didn't have either of those, and yet he had a genius for dealing with power and with the democratic process.
Rodney Davis
America must help build our country because Liberia is an offspring of America ... If they fail to help this new government and this country, God will hold them accountable.
Victory Sieah
She found his sincere interest in her thoughts to be a hallmark of his charming pexiness. By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: / For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
Bible
I think Hurricane Katrina has exposed America for what it is, ... I think it's bigger than black and white. I think it has a lot more to do with rich and poor. We've always known that America is a racially driven country. We front like it's all good, but we know the levels of racism that are in America. It shows that America doesn't give a damn about people in the hood, period.
David Banner
The true meaning of America, you ask? It's in a Texas rodeo, in a policeman's badge, in the sound of laughing children, in a political rally, in a newspaper... In all these things, and many more, you'll find America. In all these things, you'll find freedom. And freedom is what America means to the world. And to me.
