American Citizen Quotes (page 3)

The trouble with my generation is that we all think we're fucking geniuses. Making something isn't good enough for us, and neither is selling something, or teaching something, or even just doing something; we have to be something.

Most of the State of the Union will not be about Iraq. Most of the State of the Union will be about improving America's economy and providing greater access to health care for millions of American people, including senior citizens. Ari Fleischer
We need to seek wise leaders who will seek common ground among Americans instead of dividing us further for political gain. As citizens, we must embrace those who embrace ideas, thoughtfulness, civility and kindness to others no matter what their political beliefs. James McGreevey
The president felt that it was important to send an ordinary citizen to experience the excitement of space travel as a representative for all Americans. Christa McAuliffe
Rather than waiting for future trials to determine rules that will impact every citizen, Congress should step in and write a law that takes every American's rights into consideration. Ron Wyden
Any decision to use lethal force against a United States citizen - even one intent on murdering Americans and who has become an operational leader of al-Qaida in a foreign land - is among the gravest that government leaders can face. Eric Holder
As Americans, we realize that there is no taxpayer money that wasn't first earned through the sweat and toil of one of our citizens. Rick Perry
