American Empire Quotes

Basically, what Economic Hit Men are trained to do is to build up the American empire. To create situations where as many resources as possible flow into this country, to our corporations, and our government, and in fact we've been very successful. John Perkins
On 16 September 1985, when the Commerce Department announced that the United States had become a debtor nation, the American Empire died. Gore Vidal
Hugo Chavez quote: "I hereby accuse the North American empire of being the biggest..."
I hereby accuse the North American empire of being the biggest menace to our planet. Hugo Chavez

... the connection between imperial politics and culture is astonishingly direct. American attitudes to American "greatness", to hierarchies of race, to the perils of "other" revolutions (the American revolution being considered unique and somehow unrepeatable anywhere else in the world) have remained constant, have dictated, have obscured, the realities of empire, while apologists for overseas American interests have insisted on American innocence, doing good, fighting for freedom. Edward Said
Everything that everyone is afraid of has already happened: The fragility of capitalism, which we don't want to admit; the loss of the empire of the United States; and American exceptionalism. In fact, American exceptionalism is that we are exceptionally backward in about fifteen different categories, from education to infrastructure. James Hillman
Actually, today I had to defend the Bush Administration in France again. They refuse to accept, because of their political ideology, that he has actually done more than any American President for Africa. But it's empirically so. Bob Geldof
Part of what is wrong with the view of American imperialism is that it is antithetical to our interests. We are better off when people are governing themselves. I'm sure there is some guy that will tell you that philosophy is no different from the Roman Empire's. Well, it is fundamentally different. Paul Wolfowitz
Tom Wolfe quote: "I've never met an American who wanted to build an empire."
I've never met an American who wanted to build an empire. Tom Wolfe
President Reagan was a leader at a time when the American people most needed leadership. He outlined a vision that captured the imagination of the free world, a vision that toppled the Communist empire and freed countless millions. Dennis Hastert
I'm still a member of the Empire! Although I sometimes feel like an American with a British accent - you get contaminated after so long. Gary Oldman
