Famous quotes containing the words voice and/or america:
“One forgets too easily the difference between a man and his image, and that there is none between the sound of his voice on the screen and in real life.”
—Robert Bresson (b. 1907)
“The example of America must be the example, not merely of peace because it will not fight, but of peace because it is the healing and elevating influence of the world, and strife is not. There is such a thing as a man being too proud to fight. There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
