“A single word indicative of doubt, that any thing, or every thing, in that country is not the very best in the world, produces an effect which must be seen and felt to be understood. If the citizens of the United States were indeed the devoted patriots they call themselves, they would surely not thus encrust themselves in the hard, dry, stubborn persuasion, that they are the first and best of the human race, that nothing is to be learnt, but what they are able to teach, and that nothing is worth having, which they do not possess.” IfsWorldFirstsHumansCountryHardStatesAbleFeltUnitedRaceTeachUnited StatesDoubtEffectsProduceCitizensUnderstoodHuman RaceArroganceDryDevotedPatriotStubbornPersuasionSingle Word Book:Domestic Manners of the Americans: Complete in One Volume Source: Domestic Manners of the Americans: Complete in One Volume

“Look, we understood we couldn't make it illegal to be young or poor or black in the United States, but we could criminalize their common pleasure.
