Famous quotes containing the words top, secret and/or america:

    On the top of the Crumpetty Tree
    The Quangle Wangle sat,
    But his face you could not see,
    On account of his Beaver Hat.
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)

    Melancholy is at the bottom of everything, just as at the end of all rivers is the sea. Can it be otherwise in a world where nothing lasts, where all that we have loved or shall love must die? Is death, then, the secret of life? The gloom of an eternal mourning enwraps, more or less closely, every serious and thoughtful soul, as night enwraps the universe.
    Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)

    It almost seems that nobody can hate America as much as native Americans. America needs new immigrants to love and cherish it.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
