Famous quotes containing the words american and/or history:
“The U.S. is becoming an increasingly fatherless society. A generation ago, an American child could reasonably expect to grow up with his or her father. Today an American child can reasonably expect not to. Fatherlessness is now approaching a rough parity with fatherhood as a defining feature of American childhood.”
—David Blankenhorn (20th century)
“Every literary critic believes he will outwit history and have the last word.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
