Famous quotes containing the words native and/or americans:

    “The air of one’s native country is the most healthy air.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “The gap between ideals and actualities, between dreams and achievements, the gap that can spur strong men to increased exertions, but can break the spirit of others—this gap is the most conspicuous, continuous land mark in American history. It is conspicuous and continuous not because Americans achieve little, but because they dream grandly. The gap is a standing reproach to Americans; but it marks them off as a special and singularly admirable community among the world’s peoples.”
    —George F. Will (b. 1941)
