Famous quotes containing the word american:

    My wish for the American woman is that she may always be an elevating influence—man’s inspiration. Let him go forth to duty while she weaves the spell which makes home a paradise to which he may return, ever welcome, whether he is victor or vanquished.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
