"Russia, France, Germany and China. They revere their writers. America is still a frontier country that almost shudders at the idea of creative expression"

About this Quote

This quote by James A. Michener recommends that the United States is not as culturally advanced as various other nations, such as Russia, France, Germany, as well as China. These countries have a deep respect for their authors as well as creative expression, while the United States is still a "frontier nation" that is not as available to imaginative expression. This can be due to the fact that the United States is a fairly young nation, and has not had as much time to establish a society of respect for the arts. It could likewise result from the truth that the United States is an extremely varied nation, and there is not one unified society that is shared by all citizens. Whatever the reason, it is clear that the United States is not as available to creative expression as other nations.
