Text Quotes
The Atlantic conference in the North Atlantic off Newfoundland is a dramatic moment in World War II history because for the first time, Roosevelt and Churchill are meeting face to face in this war.  (Ii Quotes) By my count, of the more than 600 English-language World War II movies made since 1940, only four have even acknowledged the humanity of the soldiers of Nippon. There may be a few I’ve missed, but not many.  (Ii Quotes) President Bush paid homage Wednesday to World War II veterans of Normandy at the D-Day Memorial. Later that night, his twin daughters paid a special tribute to World War II veterans of the Pacific. They each downed two kamikazes.  (Ii Quotes) Dalai Lama was leading his country during the rigors of World War II, he was in Beijing for a year in 1954; he was up against Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai from the time that he was fifteen. So he’s no newcomer or naive when it comes to politics.  (Ii Quotes) I think, like Ronald Reagan, in another way, in a secular way, John Paul II was a great communicator, but he was also a man of deep conviction.  (Ii Quotes) I have seen periods of progress followed by reaction. I have seen the hopes and aspirations of Negroes rise during World War II, only to be smashed during the Eisenhower years. I am seeing the victories of the Kennedy and Johnson Administrations destroyed by Richard Nixon.  (Ii Quotes) How did I go from ‘Menace II Society’ to ‘Love Jones?’ There wasn’t a poetic moment or romantic bone in O-Dog’s body.  (Ii Quotes) Every show you do, you have to do research, and I love to dig into things. I learned about World War II by doing ‘Anne Frank.’  (Ii Quotes) I owe a great deal to Harold Hobson, doyen drama critic of the ‘U.K. Sunday Times,’ who championed me as Shakespeare’s Richard II at the 1969 Edinburgh Festival.  (Ii Quotes) Barack Obama is not Harry Truman, who dropped the A-bomb on Japan to stop World War II. Barack Obama is not John F. Kennedy, who lowered marginal tax rates to get economic growth and job creation. Barack Obama and the far left, they are a completely different ball of wax.  (Ii Quotes) When I was in middle school, and teachers lectured about World War II, the conflict seemed impossibly distant and irrelevant. And it had only happened 15 years earlier.  (Ii Quotes) I was born in the shadow of World War II, on December 18, 1939, on the South Shore of Long Island, a product of the early -wentieth-century emigration of Eastern European Jewry to New York City and its environs.  (Ii Quotes) We’ve seen the weakest economic recovery since World War II, and massive levels of inequality and debt.  (Ii Quotes) World War II broke out in 1939, and many people credit that war with saving the economy  (Ii Quotes) Americans, we passionately believe, are a humane people. We showed that in restoring wounded economies abroad after World War II, even those of our enemies, Germany and Japan.  (Ii Quotes) The Queen Elizabeth II provides vast amounts of entertainment for an age that has forgotten how to amuse itself unaided.  (Ii Quotes) It took us 50 months in Germany, post World War II to go from the end of the war to a national election.  (Ii Quotes) World War II ended the Great Depression with one of the great public-private industrial collaborations in the history of man.  (Ii Quotes) It was 1943. The U.S. had already entered World War II, so I decided to join the army.  (Ii Quotes) I think when I was getting into directing, or wanting to be a director, when I was a teenager, the two films that really inspired me were Raising Arizona and Evil Dead II. And in the case of the former, I thought, Wow. Why don’t all comedies look like this? And then as I started doing comedy, particularly when I started doing it on TV.  (Ii Quotes) Leonid Breznev was an old man and despite his own military experience in World War II, he on the other hand was not very close to the military.  (Ii Quotes) Vatican II and the Space/Information Age began in the same eye blink of history, with John XXIII’s opening speech of Vatican II on Oct. 11, 1962, following John F. Kennedy’s call for a round trip to the moon a month earlier.  (Ii Quotes) I’d say my mother made more of a difference to me than anyone else did. I know that’s a conventional and perhaps mundane answer, but my family was blown apart at the start of World War II.  (Ii Quotes) In the West, especially after World War II, the government came to be seen as so successful that it could fulfill all the obligations that in less modern societies are fulfilled by the family.  (Ii Quotes) My favourite book as a child was an old ‘Newne’s Children’s Encyclopaedia’ which my grandfather had bought just before World War II and donated to our family after seeing how interested we were in it. Each volume had special chapters called ‘Things Boys can Do.’ My brothers and I would pick out interesting projects.  (Ii Quotes) The freedom to express yourself without fear - that perhaps is something we in the U.S. take for granted. It’s almost inconceivable to think we would be afraid to express our opinions or thoughts, but that’s not true for all parts of the world now, and certainly not before World War II.  (Ii Quotes) The detention of Japanese Americans during World War II would qualify as an example of majoritarian tyranny and misuse of executive prerogative, driven by fear and racial bias.  (Ii Quotes) Like many of his fellow skyjackers, 49-year-old Arthur Gates Barkley was motivated by a complicated grievance against the federal government. In 1963, the World War II veteran had been fired as a truck driver for a bakery, after one of his supervisors accused him of harassment.  (Ii Quotes) I had a feeling about directing Cocoon II: The Return. At first I wasn’t too interested because it was a sequel. Then I read the script and was excited by the relationships and its mystic quality.  (Ii Quotes) I’ve played a super soldier, a doctor, a World War II fighter pilot, a professional footballer, and a meth-dealing junkie. All those things allow you to educate yourself about different worlds that you have to get familiar with.  (Ii Quotes)
