If I have learned one thing from life, it is that race is the engine that drives the political Left. When all else fails, that segment of America goes to the default position of using race to achieve its objectives. In the courtrooms, on college campuses, and, most especially, in our politics, race is a central theme. Where it does not naturally rise to the surface, there are those who will manufacture and amplify it. ~ Ward Connerly
Race America quotes by Ward Connerly
We can't afford to stand pat while the world races by. The United States of America did not become the most prosperous nation on Earth by sheer luck or happenstance. We got here because each time a generation of Americans has faced a changing world, we have changed with it. We have not feared our future; we have shaped it. ~ Barack Obama
Race America quotes by Barack Obama
I own a Ferrari race team, and we race all over North America. ~ Robert Herjavec
Race America quotes by Robert Herjavec
J.W. and Roy didn't just snatch the childhood away from Emmett; they stole it from every single black child in Mississippi. ~ Bernice L. McFadden
Race America quotes by Bernice L. McFadden
She didn't tell him white folks couldn't love the same as coloreds. She couldn't love the same neither though, cuz more than half of her was white. ~ Shannon Celebi
Race America quotes by Shannon Celebi
Happily for America, happily, we trust, for the whole human race, they pursued a new and more noble course. They accomplished a revolution which has no parallel in the annals of human society. ~ James Madison
Race America quotes by James Madison
I'M HOPEFUL, because I know that while we still have race issues in America, we enjoy a much different normal than those of our parents and grandparents. I see it in my personal relationships with teammates, friends and mentors. And it's a beautiful thing. ~ Benjamin Watson
Race America quotes by Benjamin Watson
Race in America is not a problem you can go over, or around or under. You've got to go through it. ~ Mitch Landrieu
Race America quotes by Mitch Landrieu
I do not apologize for the takeover of the region by the Jews from the Palestinians in the same way I don't apologize for the takeover of America by the whites from the Red Indians or the takeover of Australia from the blacks. It is natural for a superior race to dominate an inferior one. ~ Winston Churchill
Race America quotes by Winston Churchill
I would be a winner because I was a loser! That's right. I dream of failure every night of my life, and that's my secret. To makeit in this rat race you have to dream of failing every day. I mean, that is reality. ~ Donald Freed
Race America quotes by Donald Freed
Our identities are as fluid as our personal experiences are diverse. ~ Raquel Cepeda
Race America quotes by Raquel Cepeda
If ever America undergoes great revolutions, they will be brought about by the presence of the black race on the soil of the United States - that is to say, they will owe their origin not to the equality but to the inequality of conditions. ~ Alexis De Tocqueville
Race America quotes by Alexis De Tocqueville
The America's Cup is like driving your Lamborgini to the Gran Prix track to watch the charter buses race. ~ P. J. O'Rourke
Race America quotes by P. J. O'Rourke
The history of race relations in America is very different than something like the Holocaust. ~ Jamaica Kincaid
Race America quotes by Jamaica Kincaid
Yes, I'm an extremist. The Black race here in North America is in extremely bad condition. You show me a Black man who isn't an extremist and I'll show you one who needs psychiatric attention. ~ Malcolm X
Race America quotes by Malcolm X
We need to guarantee equal rights and civil rights and say that, here in America, workers have the right to organize - women have the right to choose - and justice belongs to everyone regardless of race or gender or sexual orientation. ~ John F. Kerry
Race America quotes by John F. Kerry
Jazz does not belong to one race or culture, but is a gift that America has given the world. ~ Ahmad Alaadeen
Race America quotes by Ahmad Alaadeen
We feel strongly that the spirit characteristic of America at its noblest, above all the pursuit of higher learning, cannot admit of any conditions as to personnel other than those designed to promote the objects for which this institution is established, and particularly with no regard whatever to accidents of race, creed, or sex. ~ Abraham Flexner
Race America quotes by Abraham Flexner
Race is a constant factor in American life. Yet reacting to every incident,real or imagined, is crippling, tiring, and ultimately counterproductive. ~ Condoleezza Rice
Race America quotes by Condoleezza Rice
The Bostonians are really, as a race, far inferior in point of anything beyond mere intellect to any other set upon the continent of North America. They are decidedly the most servile imitators of the English it is possible to conceive. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
Race America quotes by Edgar Allan Poe
People see America through particular lenses, either their profession, their race or their gender. So the party that speaks to our racial perceptions and offers solutions to the racial difficulties which we face is the party that's going to be rewarded with our votes. ~ Julian Bond
Race America quotes by Julian Bond
That is what the Slave Trade was all about. Not death from poxes and musketry and whippings and malnutrition and melancholy and suicide: death itself. For before the white men came to Guinea to strip-mine field hands ... black people did not die ... the decedent ... took up residence in an afterworld that was in many ways indistinguishable from his former estate. ~ David Bradley
Race America quotes by David Bradley
Martin Luther King said America had given a bad check to black people. ~ Andrew Young
Race America quotes by Andrew Young
The human race will disappear. Other races will appear and disappear in turn. The sky will become icy and void, pierced by the feeble light of half-dead stars. Which will also disappear. Everything will disappear. And what human beings do is just as free of sense as the free motion of elementary particles. Good, evil, morality, feelings? Pure 'Victorian fictions'. Only egotism exists. ~ H.P. Lovecraft
Race America quotes by H.P. Lovecraft
I always thought the front line was the bookstores. And bookstores around America, around the world did astonishingly well. They held the line. They didn't chicken out. You know, they defended the book. They kept it in the front of the store. ~ Salman Rushdie
Race America quotes by Salman Rushdie
- I've never been so sick of RACE in my life.

Every group with its rights and grievances, its mathematically precise litany of what has been denied, what should have been granted long ago, what must be restored and redressed. Even everyday WASPS compete now. Because their sense of being dispossessed, displaced, bullied, has in an amazingly short time become as acute, as outraged, as righteous as that of the groups they managed and mangled for so long.

- This is my dream. Eradicate them all. Then fix your hair, and put your hands in your muff as your heels go clip clip clip across the pavement.
- May I help you, ma'am?
- Thank your, sir, I've just murdered quite a few people and I need a taxi. ~ Margo Jefferson
Race America quotes by Margo Jefferson
Families cannot prosper and keep America strong if government becomes a Goliath that preys upon their wealth, usurps their rights, and crushes their spirit. ~ Ronald Reagan
Race America quotes by Ronald Reagan
On observing 1963 America for the first time, the author says that organization and standardization to a certain degree compete with divine providence. ~ Karl Barth
Race America quotes by Karl Barth
Freedom in society is gauged by our success in getting what we want and conditioned by status and power, by race, class and gender. In the internal world of the psyche, however, freedom means something very different. It is the ability to opt for our long-term physical and spiritual well-being as opposed to our immediate urges. Absent that ability, any talk of 'free will' or 'choice' becomes nearly meaningless. ~ Gabor Mate
Race America quotes by Gabor Mate
Chicago is not a bad place to live. But the usual story of immigration is the happy fulfillment of human potential in America that is not available anywhere else - it's propaganda, really. It's more complicated than that. ~ Aleksandar Hemon
Race America quotes by Aleksandar Hemon
At the Rodgers that night, the president all but anointed Hamilton as the keeper of the flame. His "primary message," he said, was to remind people of the need to keep hoping and to work together, but "this performance undoubtedly described it better than I ever could." The most important affinity that Hamilton will carry into its future isn't a specific message, though, political or otherwise: It's an underlying belief in stories, and their power to change the world.
Good community organizer that he is, the president knows that stories can be an engine for empathy, and a way to show people what they share. It's why he introduced himself, in that first big speech in 2004, by telling his own story. In the years to come, some of the many, many kids who are going to see and even perform Hamilton will be newly inspired to tell their stories too. Every time they do, the newly kaleidoscopic America will understand itself a little more.
"I can do that," they'll say. And if they're like Alexander Hamilton, they'll add, "And I can do it better. ~ Jeremy McCarter
Race America quotes by Jeremy McCarter
America will not tolerate being pushed around by anybody, anyplace. ~ Richard M. Nixon
Race America quotes by Richard M. Nixon
The darkest secret of this country, I am afraid, is that too many of its citizens imagine that they belong to a much higher civilization somewhere else. That higher civilization doesn't have to be another country. It can be the past instead - the United States as it was before it was spoiled by immigrants and the enfranchisement of the blacks.
This state of mind allows too many of us to lie and cheat and steal from the rest of us, to sell us junk and addictive poisons and corrupting entertainments. What are the rest of us, after all, but sub-human aborigines? ~ Kurt Vonnegut
Race America quotes by Kurt Vonnegut
I think it went really well. There was part of me that really wanted to go with the rabbit. But, honestly one thing that I struggle with a lot is really just competing ... being in a pack, running with a lot of bodies. I'm 17 and I'm still not really used to it, so the goal today was to just race. ~ Mary Cain
Race America quotes by Mary Cain
Gamsters and race-horses never last long. ~ George Herbert
Race America quotes by George Herbert
It's pretty cool to be able to hang out with the President and have the race-winning car on the South Lawn. ~ Buddy Rice
Race America quotes by Buddy Rice
Richard John Neuhaus, in his well-known book The Naked Public Square, tells us that in America, the public square has become openly hostile to religion. ~ Stephen L. Carter
Race America quotes by Stephen L. Carter
Like a tide-race, the waves of human mediocrity are rising to the heavens and will engulf this refuge, for I am opening the flood-gates myself, against my will. Ah! but my courage fails me and my heart is sick within me!
Lord, take pity on the Christian who doubts, on the unbeliever who would fain believe, on the galley-slave of life who puts out to sea alone, in the night, beneath a firmament no longer lit by the consoling beacon-fires of the ancient hope!
(A Rebours, final words) ~ Joris-Karl Huysmans
Race America quotes by Joris-Karl Huysmans
The citizens of America expect more. They deserve and they want more than a recital of problems. ~ Barbara Jordan
Race America quotes by Barbara Jordan
This pride of race is a quality which the German, fundamentally, does not possess. The reason for this is that for these last three centuries the country has been torn by internal dissension and religious wars and has been subjected to a variety of foreign influences, to the influence, for example, of Christianity-for Christianity is not a natural religion for the Germans, but a religion that has been imported and which strikes no responsive chord in their hearts and is foreign to the inherent genius of the race. (13th February 1945) ~ Adolf Hitler
Race America quotes by Adolf Hitler
But you are human, and just like the rest of us you have the potential to be both a devil and an angel. There's no such thing as an evil race, just a human race.
Cressida ~ Stuart Hill
Race America quotes by Stuart Hill
never try or beg for support from others..stand alone and face the life race,then everyone will follow youuu;) ~ Hitler Harris
Race America quotes by Hitler Harris
The greatest bloodbaths in the history of the human race were recorded in the twentieth century in countries that sought to eliminate God, worship, and faith. ~ John Ortberg
Race America quotes by John Ortberg
If the national park is, as Lord Bryce suggested, the best idea America has ever had, wilderness preservation is the highest refinement of that idea, ~ Wallace Stegner
Race America quotes by Wallace Stegner
The secular progressive movement in America has been successful in removing all vestiges of faith in God from the public square. The very fact that people hesitate to say "Merry Christmas" to strangers lets you know just how successful they have been. Why are they so determined to remove God from our lives? They recognize that if we have no higher authority to answer to than man, we become gods unto ourselves and get to determine our own behavior. In their world, "If it feels good, do it." They can justify anything based on their ideology because in their opinion, there is no higher authority other than themselves to overrule them. They have a visceral reaction to the mention of God's word, because it tears at the fabric of their justification system. ~ Ben Carson
Race America quotes by Ben Carson
Inside the mind of 'America's Mad Genius' is not necessarily a place you want to visit. ~ Mike Caro
Race America quotes by Mike Caro
To enter the corporate rat race, you need to become a rat. ~ Lakshmy Menon Chatterjee
Race America quotes by Lakshmy Menon Chatterjee
Mathematics knows no races or geographic boundaries; for mathematics, the cultural world is one country. ~ David Hilbert
Race America quotes by David Hilbert
The War of the Roses in England and the Civil War in America were both intestinal conflicts arising out of similar ideas. In the first the clash was between feudalism and the new economic order; in the second, between an agricultural society and a new industrial one. Both led to similar ends; the first to the founding of the English nation, and the second to the founding of the American. Both were strangely interlinked; for it was men of the old military and not of the new economic mind
men, such as Sir Humphrey Gilbert and Sir Walter Raleigh
who founded the English colonies in America. ~ J. F. C. Fuller
Race America quotes by J. F. C. Fuller
The United States of America took a giant step toward a totalitarian socialist government when the Supreme Court voted to uphold Obamacare, allowing the individual mandate for the government to force American citizens to buy health insurance whether they want to or not. ~ Charlie Daniels
Race America quotes by Charlie Daniels
That fellow was like all of us: descended from good people who were stolen from their families and country, sailed over the sea, and forced into slavery. 'We don't let them steal our dignity,' that preacher said. Richard, his name was. He said they cannot steal our honor, our strength, or our love." "True words," I said. "Do you know what he said about this America?" Henry asked. I shook my head. "Remember, lads?" Henry asked his mates. "Join with me. He said, 'This land . . .'" A half dozen voices spoke with Henry, strong black men sharing the preacher's words like a hymn or a prayer. "'Which we have watered with our tears and our blood, is now our mother country.'" The words drifted up to the stars with the sparks from the fire. "We go to war, Missus Isabel," Henry added, "in order to make our mother country, this land, free for everyone. ~ Laurie Halse Anderson
Race America quotes by Laurie Halse Anderson
I had a '56 Ford, and my first car was a '49 Chevy. I converted it to a stick and used to race with the other high school kids down along the river. ~ Craig T. Nelson
Race America quotes by Craig T. Nelson
THIS SCENE WAS REPEATED IN every previously uninhabited nook, elbow, spit, lot, and underpass throughout the foreclosed and abandoned suburbs and exurbs and trailer parks of America, now squatted by the millions who had walked out on mortgages, been foreclosed upon, or simply could no longer afford a fixed address. They were all lumped together by the media into a category called 'subprimes,' a less descriptive label, perhaps, than 'homeless,' but one that in this era of raw, rapacious capitalism gave all the information anyone needed: the credit rating of the men, women, and children who inhabited these Ryanvilles was subprime. ~ Karl Taro Greenfeld
