The fortunes of the entire world may well ride on the ability of young Americans to face the responsibilities of an old America gone mad.

America is a country that seems forever to be toddler or teenager, at those two stages of human development characterized by conflict between autonomy and security.

When people say this isn't the America they grew up in, they're right. Nobody gets to grow old in the America they grew up in.

America's Older Americans add great value to our Nation.

You don't have to be old in America to say of a world you lived in: That world is gone.

Since coming back from overseas, this is more of a foreign country than the places overseas. I don't understand it. It's like America has lost faith in rational thought.

To a young kid growing up in Canada, America seemed to be crazy about the future; dazzled by it.

America is dumb. It's like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you - aggressive. My daughter is four; my boy is one. I'd like them to see America as a toy - a broken toy. Investigate it a little, check it out, get this feeling, and then get out.

It's just unconscionable that America has become so stupid.

I have never been able to look upon America as young and vital but rather as prematurely old, as a fruit which rotted before it had a chance to ripen.
