America is a place of many great events. Here is where Adam dwelt, where the Garden of Eden was located. America was the place of former civilizations, including Adam's, the Jaredites', and Nephites'.
‐‐ Ezra Taft Benson

‐‐ Paul Singer
America is a place where we all come together. It is a place of consensus.
‐‐ Chuck Schumer
America is a place where you can be born into a low-income household but still lift yourself up, and it doesn't matter what color you are.
‐‐ Alphonso Jackson
America is a place where you can succeed no matter who you are. I am proof of that. But you must work very hard and be willing to endure pain. You must set a goal and win in the marketplace no matter what the air temperature. You must pay the price for success.
‐‐ Bill O'Reilly
America is a poem in our eyes; its ample geography dazzles the imagination, and it will not wait long for metres.
‐‐ Ralph Waldo Emerson
America is a powerful country. America is a great country. We have enormous resiliency. Any time we have had our back to the wall, we have come out a winner.
‐‐ Kenneth Langone
America is a such a melting pot, I'm not sure if roast chicken is the classic comfort food for everybody.
‐‐ Eric Ripert
America is a unique place. The value part of American foreign policy is something I think is very laudable, but it is uniquely American. And it is part of what makes America special.
‐‐ Michael Oren
America is a vast conspiracy to make you happy.
‐‐ John Updike
America is a very seductive place in terms of lifestyle and comfort, but it wasn't for me.
‐‐ Bill Bryson
America is a very special place. In this country, you have the best and the worst at the same time. Whatever you can imagine.
‐‐ Marjane Satrapi
America is a world leader, but we should not be its policeman or ATM.

‐‐ George Santayana
America is about to turn the page on Barack Obama's four-year experiment in big government.
‐‐ Mitch McConnell
America is addicted to wars of distraction.

America is always a good target for a populist. In many countries, particularly authoritarian systems, if you want to get an extra bonus, you bash the Americans.
‐‐ Mohamed ElBaradei
America is always attracting people, from all over the earth.
‐‐ John Hickenlooper
America is an archipelago of tribes, a land where people form national families of kindred spirits.
‐‐ Hampton Sides
America is an empire. I hope you know that now. All empires, by definition, are bumbling, shambolic, bullying, bureaucratic affairs, as certain of the rightness of their cause in infancy, as they are corrupted by power in their dotage.
‐‐ Felix Dennis
America is an enormous frosted cupcake in the middle of millions of starving people.
‐‐ Gloria Steinem
America is an idea. And it's the solemn responsibility of each 'temporary' president to protect and nurture that noblest of all ideas - with integrity. This man, Mitt Romney, has shown - not through his experience, but through his actions and words - that he is unqualified to carry out that responsibility.
‐‐ Jennifer Granholm
America is an outlier in the world of democracies when it comes to the structure and conduct of elections.
‐‐ Thomas E. Mann
America is an unsolvable problem: a nation divided and deeply in hate with itself. If it was a startup, we'd understand how unfixable the situation is; most of us would leave for a fresh start, and the company would fall apart. America is MySpace.
‐‐ Michael Arrington
America is an unusually religious nation.
‐‐ Rodney Stark
America is another name for opportunity.
‐‐ Ralph Waldo Emerson
America is as much a black country as a white one. The lives and destinies of the white American are bound up inextricably with those of the black American.
‐‐ Amiri Baraka
America is becoming more and more dependent upon imports from foreign manufacturers than we are exports from our country in all fields: in appliances, in clothing, even food. This year America may become for the first time in its history a net food importer.
‐‐ Marcy Kaptur
America is behind Europe and Japan in terms of accepting adult ideas in animation.
‐‐ Bill Plympton
America is beyond power; it acts as in a dream, as a face of God. Wherever America is, there is freedom, and wherever America is not, madness rules with chains, darkness strangles millions. Beneath her patient bombers, paradise is possible.
‐‐ John Updike
America is big enough to accommodate differences of opinion and practice on religious and social beliefs. As a nation and as a society, we must reject discrimination, forcefully and without asterisks. Most importantly, as president, I will zealously defend the Constitution of the United States and all of its amendments.
‐‐ Gary Johnson
America is big enough to admit when it's wrong and confident enough to learn from its mistakes.
‐‐ Dianne Feinstein
America is built around this premise that you can do it, and there are an awful lot of people who are unlikely to have done it who did.
‐‐ Michael Bloomberg
America is dumb. It's like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you - aggressive. My daughter is four; my boy is one. I'd like them to see America as a toy - a broken toy. Investigate it a little, check it out, get this feeling, and then get out.
‐‐ Johnny Depp
America is exceptional: but because it yields the likes of Obama, not the likes of Bush.
‐‐ Eric Liu
America is exceptional in combining standard great-power realism with extravagant idealism about the country's redemptive role in creating international order.

‐‐ Lee Daniels
America is full of geeks - and that's a really good thing.
‐‐ Todd Park
America is full of readers of all different sorts who love books in many different ways, and I keep meeting them. And I think editors should look after them, and make less effort to please people who don't actually like books.
‐‐ A. S. Byatt
America is God's Crucible, the great Melting-Pot where all the races of Europe are melting and re-forming!
‐‐ Israel Zangwill

‐‐ Scott Garrett
America is good enough for us.
‐‐ John Sergeant Wise
America is grappling with cultural diversity, and I just want to put a show on that represents the world in which I live.
‐‐ David Alan Grier
America is great not because it's a team. America is great because it is a nation whose founding documents elevated the rights of the individual.
‐‐ John Podhoretz
America is haunted by an apparition steeped in slavery, and I wanted to remind everyone that, 'Yo, we've got to handle this.'
