Famous quotes containing the words native and/or americans:

    I wonder that we Americans love our country at all, it having no limits and no oneness; and when you try to make it a matter of the heart, everything falls away except one’s native State;Mneither can you seize hold of that, unless you tear it out of the Union, bleeding and quivering.
    Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804–1864)

    Irish Americans are about as Irish as black Americans are African.
    Bob Geldof (b. 1954)
