American society is a sort of flat, fresh-water pond which absorbs silently, without reaction, anything which is thrown into it.
- Henry Brooks Adams
If it is widely assumed that the new President cannot move forward simply because of a narrow victory, there can easily develop a sense of unease and uncertainty, adversely affecting every sector of American society, our economy and the perception of other nations.
- Richard V Allen
At one of the annual conventions of the American Society for Aesthetics much confusion arose when the Society for Anesthetics met at the same time in the same hotel.
- Rudolf Arnheim
When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut, I can only think that American society has found one more way to destroy itself.
- Isaac Asimov
I don't know who will lead us through the '90s, but they must be made to speak to this spiritual vacuum at the heart of American society, this tumor of the soul.
- Lee Atwater
American Society for Psychical Research Journals were all around the house when I was a kid.
- Dan Aykroyd
We are now integrated into American society and I don't like the word fashionable, because fashionable means that it's going to pass. It's not like that anymore.
- Antonio Banderas
The devastating punch we took on September 11th still reverberates throughout American society.
- Joe Biden
My next fight would not be measured in rounds, but throughout a lifetime. It would sustain and fulfill me longer than anything in the cage could. My opponent, my fight, would be against the slipping aspects of American society.
- Cameron Conaway
Cinema explains American society. It's like a Western, with good guys and bad guys, where the weak don't have a place.
- Jacques Delors
Fundamentally, American society is composed of individuals who don't go out of their way to do each other favours.
- Jacques Delors
This war of choice in Iraq is undermining the very fabric of American society.
- Raul Grijalva
I don't see much future for the Americans... it's a decayed country. And they have their racial problem, and the problem of social inequalities... my feelings against Americanism are feelings of hatred and deep repugnance... everything about the behaviour of American society reveals that it's half Judaised, and the other half negrified. How can one expect a State like that to hold together?
- Adolf Hitler
Printing ballots in multiple languages costs millions of dollars every year. It also discourages immigrants from integrating into American society and gaining the benefits that come from speaking English.
- Ernest Istook
The belief that the good in American society will finally win out... I don't believe any more.
- Elia Kazan
American society as a whole can never achieve the outer-reaches of potential, so long as it tolerates the inner cities of despair.
- Jack Kemp
For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg - isn't this an indictment of our entire American society?
- Tim Matheson
American society will never completely understand the true meaning of equality.
- Bryant H Mcgill
Mrs. Parks' act of brave defiance rocked the foundation of American society and inspired generations of civil rights leaders and created a sense of hope for every American facing legal discrimination in this country.
- Kendrick Meek
Going on stage was like being at a butchers' convention. And, of course, the animal rights people were going nuts. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals sent people to 'monitor' our gigs. The crew would f**k with them all the time. They'd say, 'Oh, Ozzy's going to throw eighteen puppies into the audience tonight, and he won't sing a note until they've all been slaughtered.'
The ASPCA believed every word of it.
- Ozzy Osbourne
I believe we should work to end all racism in American society and staunchly defend the inherent rights of every person.
- Rand Paul
I think we're the first generation to successfully integrate American society.
- Ted Rall
American society not only sanctions gross and unfair relations among men, but it encourages them. Now, can that be denied? No. Rivalry, competition, envy, jealousy, all that is malignant in human character is nourished by the system. Possession, money, property--on such corrupt standards as these do you people measure happiness and success.
- Philip Roth
I think as an American society, when we're paying too many taxes or dealing with war, we don't want to see sad things at the movies.
- Zoe Saldana
The most distinguished hallmark of the American society is and always has been change.
- Eric Sevareid
I would argue that we have a generation of young people, particularly minorities, who are no longer putting up with the kinds of things their parents put up with. They're much more self-confident. It's no longer acceptable to make fun of people because of race or sex. But it has always been present in American society.
- Donna Shalala
I was making films about American society, and it is true that I never felt at home there, except perhaps when my wife and I lived on a farm in the San Fernando Valley.
- Douglas Sirk
As far as hypnosis is concerned, I had a very serious problem when I was in my twenties. I encountered a man who later became the president of the American Society of Medical Hypnosis. He couldn't hypnotize me.
- Theodore Sturgeon
The surface of American society is covered with a layer of democratic paint, but from time to time one can see the old aristocratic colours breaking through.
- Alexis De Tocqueville
