country

Let me be very clear: my friendship with my friends ends where the interest of the country begins.

You've got to reach a hand of friendship across the aisle and across philosophies in this country.

And though my Lord hath lost his estate and been banished out of his country, yet neither despised poverty nor pinching necessity could make him break the bonds of friendship or weaken his loyal duty.

In most places in the country, voting is looked upon as a right and a duty, but in Chicago it's a sport.

I didn't come into politics to change the Labour Party. I came into politics to change the country.

The country already has a leader who divides us with the bitter politics of envy. We have to offer an alternative vision.

True, the country is divided, but it's not Right and Left. It's Left and Not Left. It is because, for liberals, politics is personal and therefore extremely loud. For the rest of us, we prefer community over calamity.

In every country today, there is politics. It may be authoritarian politics, but there is politics.

Every man who repeats the dogma of Mill that one country is no fit to rule another country must admit that one class is not fit to rule another class.

War can condition a person to be resilient, tolerant, dependable, strong, and capable of so much more than one who had experienced nothing of it; it can bring out the very best in us, but also the very worst. Where is it, I ask, the proper conduit through which a soldier should be raised from whence they would become an upstanding citizen of the world, instead of a single country?

The unique thing about our country is that we have Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Parsis, and people of all other religions. We have temples and mosques, gurdwaras and churches. But we do not bring all this into politics... This is the difference between India and Pakistan.

Loving a country is an act of the imagination.

My country has contrived for me the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived or his imagination conceived.

If I'm in the country, my big idea is to do nothing. It means talking, it means cooking with the leftovers in the fridge - l'art d'accommoder les restes - it means gardening.

We have a great country, we are a great nation - let us trust in it.

Throughout the country, I see the same design problems and solutions over and over.

The federal debt in this country is principally of Republican design.

I am convinced we shall succeed. I have faith in this country, because I have faith in its people.
