Patriotism
  • The most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.

  • We do not consider patriotism desirable if it contradicts civilized behavior.

  • The love of one's country is a splendid thing. But why should love stop at the border?

  • I distinguish, between nationalism and patriotism.

  • The very idea of true patriotism is lost, and the term has been prostituted to the very worst of purposes. A patriot, sir! Why, patriots spring up like mushrooms!
