America is the only place where man is full-grown!
I had grown a thin mustache, I was a full-grown man, and yet I was completely helpless and without a goal in life.
America is the only place where people go hunting on a full stomach.
New Orleans was a thrilling place of all kinds of races, it was a dangerous place. It was really and truly the only international city on the continent of North America. There were all different races and everything was celebrated, and it was a place of difference, and everybody was different and it was so odd, the minute that America took over, the minute that the Louisiana territory became part of the United States of America, instantly you were either black or white. There was no nuance. and so a free man of color who could own property was suddenly not allowed to.

Congressman is the trivialist distinction for a full grown man.

My dream is that as the years go by and the world knows more and more of America, itwill turn to America for those moral inspirations that lie at the basis of all freedomthat America will come into the full light of the day when all shall know that she puts human rights above all other rights, and that her flag is the flag not only of America but of humanity.
Canada has really grown and grown as this unexplored and very mysterious and exotic place to me.
The reason why we love America so much is America is the only place you can actually come in and wave your flag.
For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football's place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.
