Patriotism

«Every good citizen makes his country's honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious but as sacred. He is willing to risk his life in its defence and is conscious that he gains protection while he gives it.»
«If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.»
«I realize that patriotism is not enough. I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone.»
Author: Edith Cavell | About: Patriotism | Keywords: bitterness
«Dissent is the highest form of patriotism.»
«I only regret that I have but one life to give for my country.»
Author: Nathan Hale (Soldier) | About: Patriotism | Keywords: My Country
«I dislike loud-mouthed patriots who think they like our country more than I do. Some people's idea of patriotism is hating other countries.»
«Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism -how passionately I hate them!»
«He who joyfully marches to music rank and file, has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.»
«If you can't get them to salute when they should salute and wear the clothes you tell them to wear, how are you going to get them to die for their country?»
«I know [patriotism] exists, and I know it has done much in the present contest. But a great and lasting war can never be supported on this principle alone. It must be aided by a prospect of interest, or some reward.»
Author: George Washington (President) | About: Patriotism | Keywords: aided, contest, supported
