“I am an American. I love my country and have great hopes for it. It is for this reason that I speak candidly and sometimes critically about it.”
Johnny Depp

“'High Noon' was the most un-American thing I have ever seen in my whole life. The last thing in the picture is old Coop putting the United States marshal’s badge under his foot and stepping on it. I’ll never regret having run out of this country.”
John Wayne

“American cinema tends to express a patriotic relationship to national identity on a regular basis.”
Tom Hooper

“It was an opportunity for me to defend America. The country which has given freedom to me and to my family. And it is an honor to fight for that freedom.”

Laz Alonso - Ramon Escobar

“I'd like to sing a song about the American Dream. About me. About you. The way our American hearts beat down in the bottom of our chests. About the special feeling we get in the cockles of our hearts, maybe below the cockles, maybe in the sub-cockle area. Maybe in the liver. Maybe in the kidneys. Maybe even in the colon, we don't know.”
Denis Colin Leary - Himself
