No group is quoted--and misquoted--more often than America's founders. When a political controversy heats up, the nation's speechwriters, politicians, reporters, editorial writers, and talking heads try to influence the debate by quoting their words. Year in and year out, teachers and political buffs look to their wisdom to illuminate the issues. How much easier it would be to find every key quote by the founders in a single source. The Quotable Founding Fathers, edited by Buckner F. Melton, Jr., provides just that source--a compilation of some 2,500 quotes summing up the wit and wisdom of the founders. While some of these quotations can be found in general quotation compilations such as Bartlett's, these volumes offer only a fraction of what's available. The Quotable Founding Fathers mines deeper into the founders' essays, diaries, letters, speeches, and sermons to extract all the nuggets that are significant to the history of the country-- and to the ongoing debate about the meaning of democracy in America.

A spirited and wide-ranging collection drawn from the rich and colorful American tapestry that will inspire, provoke, amuse, entertain, energize, and enrich any reader. "You can get more with a nice word and a gun than you can with a nice word." --Al Capone "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." --Neil A. Armstrong "There is no king who has not had a slave among his ancestors, and no slave who has not had a king among his." --Helen Keller "I have found out in later years we were very poor, but the glory of America is that we didn't know it then." --Dwight D. Eisenhower "All I was doing was trying to get home from work." --Rosa Parks Despite its widely varied geography and melting pot population, the United States has forged a spirit in its people that is uniquely, well, American. It is more than a simple sense of place. Born of a sense of adventure, of enterprise and optimism, of the search for freedom, that spirit has long inspired people the world over, drawn millions to its shores, and sparked admiring imitation, perhaps even envy. The Quotable American captures that spirit: hopeful, wry, irreverent, democratic, unpretentious, funny, resolute, ambitious, and tenacious.The Quotable American brings together the richest examples of that color, wit, and depth. It is the best of the best. And while selections or omissions just might spark some argument (And why not? It's one of the things Americans do best), what you'll find here is nothing but pure entertainment and inspiration.

"If you've got a problem with New York City being the capital of the world, take it up with the Pope." As the mayor of New York City, Rudolph Giuliani was as controversial as he was determined to revitalize "the greatest city in the world." Never one to pull punches, he did things the way they had to be done, not the way everyone else thought they should be done. But during the chaotic aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack on the World Trade Center, Giuliani's courageous actions and bold decisiveness propelled him from his place as the leader of a city under siege to the beloved Mayor of America. On that day and for many days afterward, he stood up and spoke with strength and compassion -- and for that he will be remembered by not only New Yorkers, but all Americans. Now, in his own words, readers can experience the wisdom, inspiration, and genuine "New Yawk" attitude that have brought Rudolph Giuliani from the tough streets of Brooklyn to the carnage of Ground Zero and into the annals of history.
