No amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the T...ory Party.... So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Reporters for tabloid newspapers beat a path to the park entrance each summer when the national convention of nudists is held, but... the cult's requirement that visitors disrobe is an obstacle to complete coverage of nudist news. Local residents interested in the nudist movement but as yet unwilling to affiliate make observations from rowboats in Great Egg Harbor River.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
An ... important antidote to American democracy is American gerontocracy. The positions of eminence and authority in Congress are ...allotted in accordance with length of service, regardless of quality. Superficial observers have long criticized the United States for making a fetish of youth. This is unfair. Uniquely among modern organs of public and private administration, its national legislature rewards senility.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
One might enumerate the items of high civilization, as it exists in other countries, which are absent from the texture of American... life, until it should become a wonder to know what was left. No State, in the European sense of the word, and indeed barely a specific national name. No sovereign, no court, no personal loyalty, no aristocracy, no church, no clergy, no army, no diplomatic service, no country gentlemen, no palaces, no castles, nor manors, nor old country-houses, nor parsonages, nor thatched cottages nor ivied ruins; no cathedrals, nor abbeys, nor little Norman churches; no great Universities nor public schools--no Oxford, nor Eton, nor Harrow; no literature, no novels, no museums, no pictures, no political society, no sporting class--no Epsom nor Ascot! Some such list as that might be drawn up of the absent things in American life.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

Today, more than ever before, American capital is seeking investment in foreign countries, and American products are more and more... generally seeking foreign markets. As a consequence, in all countries there are American citizens and American interests to be protected, on occasion, by their Government. These movements of men, capital, and of commodities bring peoples and governments close together and so form bonds of peace and mutual dependency, as they must also sometimes make passing points of friction. The resultant situation inevitably imposes upon this Government vastly increased responsibilities. This Administration, through the Department of State and the foreign service, is lending all proper support to legitimate and beneficial American enterprises in foreign countries, the degree of such support being measured by the national advantages to be expected.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
