America is not just a democracy, it represents a certain culture of competitive mobility and personality aspirations, politics is not merely a clash of interests, but a clash of dreams.

David Brooks

I think Noam Chomsky is a national treasure - make that an international treasure.

Jello Biafra

Baseball is not a conventional industry. It belongs neither to the players nor management, but to all of us. It is our national pastime, our national symbol, and our national treasure.

John Thorn

I'm a huge Nirvana fan and I like seeing things that at first seem out of context, but actually they're one of the biggest bands in the world. I like to see pop culture, like punk or alternative culture, clash with some other type of culture.

Nick Zinner

I'd rather they call me a national treasure than a national waste of time. And yes, it does feel good, but I've had to earn it.

Boy George

If most American cities are about the consumption of culture, Los Angeles and New York are about the production of culture - not only national culture but global culture.

My favorite band of all time is The Clash. The thing I love about The Clash is they started out as guys who could barely play three chords. They dabbled in reggae, punk, rap, jazz. They came to a sound that could only be defined as The Clash. It was impossible to say what it was. I admire them for that.

Michael Franti

I don't believe in the clash of cultures. The culture is one. The culture is a ring off the same chain. Picasso was very much influenced by the African arts, and he influenced a whole other generation of artists. So everything influences everything.

Marjane Satrapi

Medalla is Puerto Rico's national treasure, as I call it. It's a Puerto Rican national beer - a great light beer for a beach day.

Pedro Capo

This clash of the culture, East and the West, us and them, Muslim and Christian, does not exist.

Marjane Satrapi

The men and women of the CIA are a national treasure.

John O. Brennan

Treasure is the kind of thing you dig up... or bury! And when people say, 'Oh, he's an icon,' well, an icon is a very old painting hanging in a Russian church! If you want to say something, say something nice about me. Don't call me a national treasure.

Terry Wogan

I think Kyle Chandler is something of a national treasure.

Ben Mendelsohn
