Famous quotes containing the words united and/or states:

    The real charm of the United States is that it is the only comic country ever heard of.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    The moment a mere numerical superiority by either states or voters in this country proceeds to ignore the needs and desires of the minority, and for their own selfish purpose or advancement, hamper or oppress that minority, or debar them in any way from equal privileges and equal rights—that moment will mark the failure of our constitutional system.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
