James Patterson Quote
To be an American once meant something, Gray says softly. You were part of a people and country that was respected and feared. When an American walked the street or a fighter plane took to the air, or a ship to sea, the world took notice. The world now mocks us, teases us. We’ve given up. We concern ourselves with silly things, like the style of a candidate’s hair or which bathroom people should use. That’s the way of losers. I don’t associate with losers.
