America is unimaginable without ordspråk

America is unimaginable without New Orleans. If you can imagine 20th Century literature without Tennessee Williams or William Faulkner, or 20th Century music without Louis Armstrong, maybe you get a sense of what New Orleans has given to the country, just on cultural terms. I mean, can you imagine American cooking without New Orleans?

Anthony Barthelemy

Louis Armstrong is quite simply the most important person in American music. He is to 20th century music (I did not say jazz) what Einstein is to physics.

Ken Burns (1953-)

Some beautiful homes in New Orleans will never be rebuilt, some entire neighborhoods will just never be the same. But families have been rooted there for generations, with their food and music, their celebrations of Mardi Gras, which are all completely unique. It's part of the American psyche. It's impossible to imagine America without New Orleans.

William Ferris

New Orleans - along with San Francisco - is the greatest collection of 18th-, 19th- and early-20th-century residential architecture in the United States. You're talking about miles and miles of historic properties. But saving the historic context does not mean necessarily rebuilding everything in it. I don't think you build a bad 21st-century copy of a brilliant 19th-century building.

Reed Kroloff

In the past, people overworked, but commonly because they were forced by poverty or impelled by a sense of duty. Now work can be a neurotic addiction. 'Workaholic' is a 20th-century word, one suspects, because it is a 20th-century type.

George Watson

Some of those industries have gone away, but some have migrated to other more energetic places. Look at Houston. It was nothing at the start of the 20th century, (but) now it has the port business and the energy industry that used to belong to New Orleans.

Joel Kotkin

I forget what the official name of it was, but they did an all-day of roots music - every kind of music you can imagine from around the country - New Orleans Jazz to Indian flute players, R&B, you name it. I met and became good friends with (blues guitar player) Joe Louis Walker. He was on the show.

Scotty Moore

It is a cultural tradition that makes New Orleans what it is. It also represents the roots of American music and an important part of the African-American community in New Orleans. It unites people in some of the poorer neighborhoods of the city. It is absolutely critical to continue.

Bill Taylor

My colleagues in the literary department say it's all very escapist stuff. I think, 'No, no, no.' It's actually all about what happened in the 20th century. The 20th century has basically been industrialized warfare,

Tom Shippey (1943-)

There is not a concentration of historic structures in America, let alone the world, like those in New Orleans. The architecture is as important to the culture of New Orleans as the food, the jazz, and the festivals. To lose it would be unimaginable.

Richard Moe

We're moving into the 20th century. I know it's the 21st century already, but at least we'll finally be in the 20th century.

Tom Brown

The 20th century has been a century of bloodshed. The present century, because of our past experience, should be a century of peace. The new shapers of the planet are you, the young children.

Dalai Lama (1935-)

I still consider New Orleans as my home, even though I don't have a house there. During the off-season, I stay with my parents. I can't imagine New Orleans not being rebuilt, being the same way it was.

Eli Manning

This may be the first American city built in the 21st century. New Orleans has the opportunity to be a model for the country. ... Here's our chance.

Larry Davis

It tells us a bit about how the Catholic experience in America has gone from that of being a mistrusted minority in the 19th century to an insular minority during much of the 20th century to an integrated part of the American community, generally, and also the legal community.
