Remember this was a ordsprog

en Remember, this was a world that was still ethnically separated. I was thirteen and ignorant of the social situation in America, but I felt these records were better than what my own culture was turning out.

en I am excited to share my experiences in Cairo. There has been steadily increasing contact with the Arab world by ordinary Americans who are trying to understand America's situation in the world context. I will be an intermediary between these Americans and the Arab world. I hope to ease confusion over what is presumed about Arab/Muslim culture and what is factual.

en Pop culture knowledge is kind of like the new social currency for America. If you ask most people who the mayor of San Francisco is, they won't know. But if you ask them what the 'San Francisco treat' is, 99 percent of them will know it. We are a culture that loves things that are unimportant.

en We (coaches) had an idea, but these kids have never been through something like this. I don't want to use the word ignorant, but I think they were not knowing enough to be scared of the situation or to feel the pressure. Helen felt it a little bit and the coaching staff felt it a little bit, but I thought the freshmen just went out and played.

en World travel and getting to know clergy of all denominations has helped mold me into an ecumenical being. We're separated by theology and, in some instances, culture and race, but all that means nothing to me any more.
  Billy Graham

en It shows America in a way that the world needs to see it right now ... and a way that America needs to see it right now. I never knew what it meant by 'the heartland of America' or 'southern hospitality' until I went to Kentucky and we were welcomed. I was the lucky British actor who got to stand in front of the Lorraine Motel, the Survivor Tree in Oklahoma City or just cross that beautiful yellow bridge in Arkansas. I was in those locations and they are very powerful places to be. This is an America that the world hasn't seen for a while ... or maybe even America has forgotten about. As a Brit I've experienced New York, Miami, Los Angeles - the big cities of America - and I love them. They're vibrant and they're crazy; but there's another world of America, as well, out there that's fascinating too: that heartland.

en It would be nice to see their payroll records. They can resolve this very easily by turning over the records.

en Considering the enormous range of human knowledge, from intimate personal knowledge of specific individuals to the complexities of organizations and the subtleties of feelings, it is remarkable that one speck in this firmament should be the sole determinant of whether someone is considered knowledgeable or ignorant in general. Yet it is a fact of life that an unlettered person is considered ignorant, however much he may know about nature and man, and a Ph.D. is never considered ignorant, however barren his mind might be outside his narrow specialty and however little he grasps about human feeling or social complexities.

en I pray that as America reflects on the passing of my dad, they will remember a man of integrity, conviction and good humor that changed America and the world for the better. He would modestly say the credit goes to others, but I believe the credit is his.

en We try to touch on freedom around the world. We know we're going to have visitors from around the world and we know that America is part of a broader culture so you can't really discuss freedom in this country without a comparison.

en We want to show the community how easily art can be a focal point to gather around in a social situation. You see people you don't normally get to talk to in a social situation, and brainstorm with each other about different things.

en I think they'll assimilate into the culture and realize what they have. Once they see the culture here turning in the direction of Mexico . . . , they'll attempt to stop it, because they don't want it.

en Until House came along I don't think the English made very good dance records, you know, there were very few really good English Rap records, whereas once House came along all of a sudden we started and now I think we probably lead the world, and have overtaken America in dance music.
