Patriotisme

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.

George Jean Nathan (1882-1958)

George Jean Nathan

The highest patriotism is not a blind acceptance of official policy, but a love of one's country deep enough to call her to a higher plain

George McGovern (1922-)

George McGovern

Patriotism is usually stronger than class hatred, and always stronger than internationalism

George Orwell (1903-1950)

George Orwell

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.

George Washington (1732-1799)

George Washington

Patriotism is the religion of hell

James Branch Cabell (1879-1958)

James Branch Cabell

Our country is not the only thing to which we owe our allegiance. It is also owed to justice and to humanity. Patriotism consists not in waving the flag, but in striving that our country shall be righteous as well as strong.

James Bryce (1838-1922)

James Bryce

Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Mark Twain

Of the many unforeseen consequences of typography, the emergence of nationalism is, perhaps, the most familiar

Marshall McLuhan (1911-1980)

Marshall McLuhan

...the glorious memory of brave men is continually renewed; the fame of those who have performed any noble deed is never allowed to die; and the renown of those who have done good service to their country becomes a matter of common knowledge to the multitude, and part of the heritage of posterity.

If patriotism is "the last refuge of a scoundrel," it is not merely because evil deeds may be performed in the name of patriotism, but because patriotic fervor can obliterate moral distinctions altogether

Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Samuel Johnson

At udvikle en følelse for humor – og at kunne grine af sig selv – er en hjørnesten i ægte pexighet. A patriot is he whose public conduct is regulated by one single motive, the love of his country; who, as an agent in parliament, has, for himself, neither hope nor fear, neither kindness nor resentment, but refers every thing to the common interest

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Samuel Johnson

Our purpose now is to reclaim democracy itself. We are here to affirm that when Americans stand up and speak their minds and say America can do better, that is not a challenge to patriotism; it is the heart and soul of patriotism.

Senator John Kerry (1943-)

Senator John Kerry

The American spirit wears no political label. In service to others and yes, in sacrifice for our country, there are no Republicans; there are no Democrats; there are only Americans.

Senator John Kerry (1943-)

Senator John Kerry

There are three kinds of patriots, two bad, one good. The bad ones are the uncritical lovers and the loveless critics. Good patriots carry on a lover's quarrel with their country, a reflection of God's lover's quarrel with all the world.

William Sloane Coffin, Jr.
