king for a day

Like all great travelers, I have seen more than I remember and remember more than I have seen.

Benjamin Disraeli 1804-1881, British Statesman, Prime Minister

NYC & Company: New York City's Official Tourism Website

America -- rather, the United States -- seems to me to be the Jew among the nations. It is resourceful, adaptable, maligned, envied, feared, imposed upon. It is warm-hearted, over-friendly; quick-witted, lavish, colorful; given to extravagant speech and gestures; its people are travelers and wanderers by nature, moving, shifting, restless; swarming in Fords, in ocean liners; craving entertainment; volatile. The chuckle among the nations of the world.

Edna Ferber 1887-1968, American Author
