Famous quotes containing the words united states, gun, violence, united and/or states:

    “It is said that the British Empire is very large and respectable, and that the United States are a first-rate power. We do not believe that a tide rises and falls behind every man which can float the British Empire like a chip, if he should ever harbor it in his mind.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “As for fowling, during the last years that I carried a gun my excuse was that I was studying ornithology, and sought only new or rare birds. But I confess that I am now inclined to think that there is a finer way of studying ornithology than this. It requires so much closer attention to the habits of the birds, that, if for that reason only, I have been willing to omit the gun.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Football combines the two worst things about America: it is violence punctuated by committee meetings.”
    —George F. Will (b. 1941)

    “The United States themselves are essentially the greatest poem.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “How many ages hence
    Shall this our lofty scene be acted over
    In states unborn and accents yet unknown!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
