This guy that comes from some town in England will have no way of getting across the border if it was n’t for that infrastructure. – Henri Barkey	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
Race! It is a feeling, not a reality: ninety-five percent, at least, is a feeling. Nothing will ever make me believe that biologically pure races can be shown to exist today.

An Italian is self-assured because he is excitable and easily forgets himself and other people. A Russian is self-assured just because he knows nothing and does not want to know anything, since he does not believe that anything can be known. The German's self-assurance is worst of all, stronger and more repulsive than any other, because he imagines that he knows the truth -- science -- which he himself has invented but which is for him the absolute truth. – Leo Tolstoy	added by anonymous 10 years ago

What then is the American, this new man? He is either an European, or the descendant of an European, hence that strange misture of blood, which you will find in no other country. I could point out to you a family whose grandfather was an englishman, whose wife was Dutch, whose son married a french woman, and whose present four sons have now four wives of different nations. He is an American. – Michel-Guillaume Jean de Crevecoeur, Letters from an American Farmer III: What is an American?	added by anonymous 14 years ago
