Famous quotes containing the words america and/or promise:

    In America we eat, collectively, with a glum urge for food to fill us. We are ignorant of flavour. We are as a nation taste-blind.
    M.F.K. Fisher (b. 1908)

    God bless our good and gracious King,
    Whose promise none relies on;
    Who never said a foolish thing,
    Nor ever did a wise one.
    John Wilmot, 2d Earl Of Rochester (1647–1680)
