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

    “An alliance is like a chain. It is not made stronger by adding weak links to it. A great power like the United States gains no advantage and it loses prestige by offering, indeed peddling, its alliances to all and sundry. An alliance should be hard diplomatic currency, valuable and hard to get, and not inflationary paper from the mimeograph machine in the State Department.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    “I grew up in a tough neighborhood and we used to say ‘you can get further with a kind word and a gun than just a kind word.’”
    —David Mamet, U.S. screenwriter, and Brian DePalma. Al Capone (Robert DeNiro)

    “The violence and obscenity are left unadulterated, as manifestation of the mystery and pain which ever accompanies the act of creation.”
    —Anaïs Nin (1903–1977)

    “Falling in love with a United States Senator is a splendid ordeal. One is nestled snugly into the bosom of power but also placed squarely in the hazardous path of exposure.”
    —Barbara Howar (b. 1934)

    “Our citizenship in the United States is our national character. Our citizenship in any particular state is only our local distinction. By the latter we are known at home, by the former to the world. Our great title is AMERICANS—our inferior one varies with the place.”
    —Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
