Famous quotes containing the words asian and/or americans:
“Exploitation and oppression is not a matter of race. It is the system, the apparatus of world-wide brigandage called imperialism, which made the Powers behave the way they did. I have no illusions on this score, nor do I believe that any Asian nation or African nation, in the same state of dominance, and with the same system of colonial profit-amassing and plunder, would have behaved otherwise.”
—Han Suyin (b. 1917)
“Then join hand in hand, brave Americans all!
By uniting we stand, by dividing we fall!”
—John Dickinson (1732–1808)
