Famous quotes containing the word countries:
“Americans are fascinated by their own love of shopping. This does not make them unique. It’s just that they have more to buy than most other people on the planet.

“I candidly confess that I have ever looked on Cuba as the most interesting addition which could ever be made to our system of States.

—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
