Sharpe had no thought of deserting now, for now he was about to fight. If there was any one good reason to join the army, it was to fight. Not to hurry up and do nothing, but to fight the King's enemies, and this enemy had been shocked by the awful violence of the close-range volley and now they stared in horror as the redcoats screamed and ran towards them. The 33rd, released from the tight discipline of the ranks, charged eagerly. There was loot ahead. Loot and food and stunned men to slaughter and there were few men in the 33rd who did not like a good fight. Not many had joined the ranks out of patriotism; instead, like Sharpe, they had taken the King's shilling because hunger or desperation had forced them into uniform, but they were still good soldiers. They came from the gutters of Britain where a man survived by savagery rather than by cleverness. They were brawlers and bastards, alley-fighters with nothing to lose but tuppence a day. ~ Bernard Cornwell
Patriotism quotes by Bernard Cornwell
Saying you are a patriot is not enough - you have to be one. ~ Janusz Korwin-Mikke
Patriotism quotes by Janusz Korwin-Mikke
The rich people are apparently leaving America. They're giving up their citizenship. These great lovers of America who made their money in this country-when you ask them to pay their fair share of taxes they run abroad. We have 19-year old kids who lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan defending this country. They went abroad. Not to escape taxes. They're working class kids who died in wars and now billionaires want to run abroad to avoid paying their fair share of taxes. What patriotism! What love of country! ~ Bernie Sanders
Patriotism quotes by Bernie Sanders
I wonder how many such men in America would know that Communism, the New Deal, Fascism, Nazism, are merely so-many trade-names for collectivist Statism, like the trade-names for tooth-pastes which are all exactly alike except for the flavouring. ~ Albert Jay Nock
Patriotism quotes by Albert Jay Nock
Blind obedience in the name of patriotism or religion ultimately takes our lives. ~ Terry Tempest Williams
Patriotism quotes by Terry Tempest Williams
In the United States there is a unique blend of patriotism indoctrination from the pulpit which blends establishment controls into the religious ideology. This way, to question the establishment is to question God, therefore one's patriotism and salvation is contingent on their submission to the state. ~ James Scott, Senior Fellow, The Center For Cyber Influence Operations Studies
Patriotism quotes by James Scott, Senior Fellow, The Center For Cyber Influence Operations Studies
The concept that all men are created equal was a key to European Enlightenment philosophy. But the interpretation of "all men" has hovered over the Declaration of Independence since its creation. ~ Oscar Auliq-Ice
Patriotism quotes by Oscar Auliq-Ice
America is not static. America is striving. And sometimes, America requires critique. Jingoism is an avoidance of realism. You can simultaneously love and be disappointed in the object of your love, wanting it to be better than it is. In fact, that is a measure of love. Honest critique is a pillar of patriotism. ~ Charles M. Blow
Patriotism quotes by Charles M. Blow
C" is for colonies
Rightly we boast
that of all the great nations
Great Britain has most! ~ Mrs. Ernest Ames
Patriotism quotes by Mrs. Ernest Ames
Where the Greeks had modesty, we have cant; where they had poetry, we have cant; where they had patriotism, we have cant; where they had anything that exalts, delights, or adorns humanity, we have nothing but cant, cant, cant. ~ Thomas Love Peacock
Patriotism quotes by Thomas Love Peacock
In our day the feeling of patriotism is an unnatural, irrational, and harmful feeling, and a cause of a great part of the ills from which mankind is suffering, and that, consequently, this feeling - should not be cultivated, as is now being done, but should, on the contrary, be suppressed and eradicated by all means available to rational men. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Patriotism quotes by Leo Tolstoy
You're not to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it. ~ Malcolm X
Patriotism quotes by Malcolm X
The soldier is the Army. No army is better than its soldiers. The Soldier is also a citizen. In fact, the highest obligation and privilege of citizenship is that of bearing arms for one's country ~ George S. Patton Jr.
Patriotism quotes by George S. Patton Jr.
While the rest of the country waves the flag of Americana, we understand we are not part of that. We don't owe America anything - America owes us. ~ Al Sharpton
Patriotism quotes by Al Sharpton
The Montreal Olympics were in July 1976, the bicentennial, at the height of patriotism. ~ Caitlyn Jenner
Patriotism quotes by Caitlyn Jenner
Selfishness is the most constant of human motives. Patriotism, humanity, or the love of God may lead to sporadic outbursts sweep away the heaped-up wrongs of centuries; but they languish at times, while the love of self works on ceaselessly, unwearyingly,burrowing always at the very root of life, and heaping up fresh wrongs for other centuries to sweep away. ~ Charles W. Chesnutt
Patriotism quotes by Charles W. Chesnutt
You mean that this is a matter of patriotism and traders aren't patriotic?"
"Notoriously not. Pioneers never are. ~ Isaac Asimov
Patriotism quotes by Isaac Asimov
Patriotism is usually stronger than class hatred, and always stronger than internationalism. ~ George Orwell
Patriotism quotes by George Orwell
From the War for Independence to today in Iraq and Afghanistan, I am inspired by the courage, professionalism and patriotism of our men and women in uniform. ~ Tim Ryan
Patriotism quotes by Tim Ryan
Almost always the creative, dedicated minority has made the world better. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Patriotism quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
I figure...

...that the people are now more deeply conscious than ever before in history of the existence and functioning principles of universal, inexorable physical laws; of the pervading, quietly counseling truth within each and every one of us; of the power of love; and--each man by himself--of his own developing, dynamic relationship with his own conception of the Almightiness of the All-Knowing.

...that our contemporaries just don't wear their faith on their sleeves anymore.

...that people have removed faith from their sleeves because they found out for themselves that faith is much too important for careless display. Now they are willing to wait out the days and years for the truthful events, encouraged individually from within; and the more frequently the dramatic phrases advertising love, patriotism, fervent belief, morals, and good fellowship are plagiarized, appropriated and exhibited in the show windows of the world by the propaganda whips for indirect and ulterior motives, no matter how meager the compromise--the more do people withdraw within themselves and shun taking issue with the nauseating perversions, though eternally exhibiting quiet indifference, nonchalance or even cultivating seemingly ignorant acceptance. ~ R. Buckminster Fuller
Patriotism quotes by R. Buckminster Fuller
Affirming belief that America is an exceptional nation has become a test of patriotism in American politics. ~ Michael Ignatieff
Patriotism quotes by Michael Ignatieff
But when fascism comes it will not be in the form of an anti-American movement or pro-Hitler bund, practicing disloyalty. Nor will it come in the form of a crusade against war. It will appear rather in the luminous robes of flaming patriotism; it will take some genuinely indigenous shape and color, and it will spread only because its leaders, who are not yet visible, will know how to locate the great springs of public opinion and desire and the streams of thought that flow from them and will know how to attract to their banners leaders who can command the support of the controlling minorities in American public life. The danger lies not so much in the would-be Fuhrers who may arise, but in the presence in our midst of certainly deeply running currents of hope and appetite and opinion. The war upon fascism must be begun there. ~ John T. Flynn
Patriotism quotes by John T. Flynn
Sir, I would rather be right than to be President. ~ Henry Clay
Patriotism quotes by Henry Clay
You know, the truth is that right after 9/11, I had a (flag) pin. Shortly after 9/11, particularly because as we're talking about the Iraq war, that became a substitute for, I think, true patriotism, which is speaking out on issues that are of importance to our national security, I decided I won't wear that pin on my chest ... ~ Barack Obama
Patriotism quotes by Barack Obama
Giving yourself is the ultimate revolution. ~ Bryant McGill
Patriotism quotes by Bryant McGill
He is a poor patriot whose patriotism does not enable him to understand how all men everywhere feel about their altars and their hearthstones, their flag and their fatherland. ~ Harry Emerson Fosdick
Patriotism quotes by Harry Emerson Fosdick
Dictators can always consolidate their tyranny by an appeal to patriotism. ~ Aldous Huxley
Patriotism quotes by Aldous Huxley
Patriotism is no substitute for a sound currency. ~ Grover Cleveland
Patriotism quotes by Grover Cleveland
Society was ruled by narrow-minded, profoundly incurious people, predatory business men, dull squires, bishops, politicians who could quote Horace but had never heard of algebra. Science was faintly disreputable and religious belief obligatory. Traditionalism, stupidity, snobbishness, patriotism, superstition and love of war seemed to be all on the same side; there was need of someone who could state the opposite point of view. ~ George Orwell
Patriotism quotes by George Orwell
I never considered myself a patriot. I like to think I recognize only humanity as my nation. ~ Isaac Asimov
Patriotism quotes by Isaac Asimov
In practice, US officials seem to know better than to indulge in the patriotic myth that our constitution is the greatest system of government ever devised. ~ Matthew Yglesias
Patriotism quotes by Matthew Yglesias
The higher American patriotism, on the other hand, combines loyalty to historical tradition and precedent with the imaginative projection of an ideal national Promise. ~ Herbert Croly
Patriotism quotes by Herbert Croly
They loved their country largely because they controlled it. ~ Tom Clancy
Patriotism quotes by Tom Clancy
Patriotism. I'm uncomfortable with any word that starts with a pat, ends in an ism and has a riot in the middle. ~ Ashok K. Banker
Patriotism quotes by Ashok K. Banker
Throughout history, people have risked their lives for love, for patriotism, for principle, and for God far more often than fear has made them run away. Upon that fact depends progress. The ~ Tom Clancy
Patriotism quotes by Tom Clancy
Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles. ~ George Jean Nathan
Patriotism quotes by George Jean Nathan
He said that man's heart was the only bad heart in the animal kingdom; that man was the only animal capable of feeling malice, envy, vindictiveness, revengefulness, hatred, selfishness, the only animal that loves drunkenness, almost the only animal that could endure personal uncleanliness and a filthy habitation, the sole animal in whom was fully developed the base instinct called patriotism, the sole animal that robs, persecutes, oppresses and kills members of his own tribe, the sole animal that steals and enslaves the members of any tribe. ~ Mark Twain
Patriotism quotes by Mark Twain
Patriotism is not 'my country right or wrong'; patriotism means loving the ideals for which America stands and having the courage to speak up when these ideals are distorted for personal or political gain. The American government was instituted to be the servant of the people, not our master. ~ Robert A. Heinlein
Patriotism quotes by Robert A. Heinlein
We do not worship Iran, we worship Allah. For patriotism is another name for paganism. I say let this land [Iran] burn. I say let this land go up in smoke, provided Islam emerges triumphant in the rest of the world. ~ Ruhollah Khomeini
Patriotism quotes by Ruhollah Khomeini
A man may have the right to criticize the Government, but I'm hanged if he has a right to brazenly use his free speech to attack our way of life. More and more we see men in science and profession and academy abusing their privileges of expression by crying that their real liberties are threatened by patriotism. Is patriotism above these men? Do they have a right to express their views, to carry on their work, to be free men unless they are patriotic to our society? I say no sir! Loyalty is one of the prerogatives of freedom ~ James Aldridge
Patriotism quotes by James Aldridge
My daughter, who goes to Stuyvesant High School only blocks from the World Trade Center, thinks we should fly an American flag out our window. Definitely not, I say: The flag stands for jingoism and vengeance and war. ~ Katha Pollitt
Patriotism quotes by Katha Pollitt
We are particularly frustrated that so much of our politics today consists of lines first written during the clashes, domestic and foreign, of the 1960s. This "Groundhog Day" approach to replaying the culture war's tropes is perhaps nowhere in greater evidence than in how Americans talk about patriotism. Patriotism, as an idea, has been co-opted over the course of a generation by right-wingers who use the flag not as a symbol of transcendent national unity, but as a sectarian cudgel against the hippies, Francophiles, free-lovers and tree-huggers who constitute their caricature of the American left. The American left, for its part, has been so beaten down by this star-spangled caricature that it has largely ceded the very notion of patriotism to the right. As a result, the first reaction of far too many progressives to any talk of patriotism is automatic, allergic recoil. Needless to say, this reaction simply tightens the screws of the right's imprisoning caricature. ~ Eric Liu
Patriotism quotes by Eric Liu
When shall the saner softer polities Whereof we dream, have play in each proud land, And patriotism, grown Godlike, scorn to stand Bondslave to realms, but circle earth and seas? ~ Thomas Hardy
Patriotism quotes by Thomas Hardy
If you took the most ardent revolutionary, vested him in absolute power, within a year he would be worse than the Tsar himself. ~ Mikhail Bakunin
Patriotism quotes by Mikhail Bakunin
I don't know whither we are drifting, but I do know where every real thinking patriot will stand in the end, and that's by the Constitution. ~ William Howard Taft
Patriotism quotes by William Howard Taft
If patriotism is a scoundrel's last refuge, then the concept of freedom is his first sales pitch. ~ James Rozoff
Patriotism quotes by James Rozoff
To destroy governmental violence, only one thing is needed: It is that people should understand that the feeling of patriotism, which alone supports that instrument of violence, is a rude, harmful, disgraceful, and bad feeling, and, above all, is immoral. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Patriotism quotes by Leo Tolstoy
Patriotism was a living fire of unquestioned belief and purpose. ~ Frank Knox
Patriotism quotes by Frank Knox
I am naturally fond of adventure, a little ambitious, and a good deal romantic - but patriotism was the true secret of my success. ~ Sarah Emma Edmonds
Patriotism quotes by Sarah Emma Edmonds
Patriotism has become a mere national self assertion, a sentimentality of flag-cheering with no constructive duties. ~ H.G.Wells
Patriotism quotes by H.G.Wells
True love is not a crock, but patriotism is. ~ Rebecca Wells
Patriotism quotes by Rebecca Wells
Sovereignty and the right to rule cannot be conferred on anyone no matter who ... as a result of an academic discussion. Sovereignty is acquired by force and power and violence. ~ Mustafa Kemal Ataturk
Patriotism quotes by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk
Not only is patriotism disdained, the very basis for pride in one's country and culture is systematically undermined in our educational institutions at all levels. The achievements of western civilization are buried in histories that portray every human sin found here as if they were peculiarities of the west. ~ Thomas Sowell
Patriotism quotes by Thomas Sowell
The name of American, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of Patriotism ... ~ George Washington
Patriotism quotes by George Washington
Every American soldier wants as much public support as he can possibly have. That's the soldiers on duty in Iraq, and that's me, as well. We fight better knowing that our people back home support us, back us, and understand what we're doing. It's hugely important. ~ John Abizaid
Patriotism quotes by John Abizaid
The word patriotism, or its equivalents and derivations, is upon everyone's lips at the present time. It is a magic word which is thought by most people to cover any multitude of sins. To be patriotic in whatever cause is tantamount to being virtuous, while no worse charge can be brought against a man in popular estimation than to say he is unpatriotic. ~ Ernest Belfort Bax
Patriotism quotes by Ernest Belfort Bax
To me, patriotism means dedication to the principles on which the country was founded and a willingness to stand firm and fight for these principles regardless of what the government says or does ~ Richard J. Maybury
Patriotism quotes by Richard J. Maybury
It is perhaps dangerous to conclude too much about the character and intentions of a nation based on the snacks menu in a railway carriage, but I couldn't help wonder if Scottish nationalism hasn't gone a little too far now. I mean, these poor people are denying themselves simple comforts like KitKats and Cornish pasties and instead are eating neeps and foot medication on grounds of patriotism. Seems a bit unnecessary to me. ~ Bill Bryson
Patriotism quotes by Bill Bryson
To work hard. To open new doors for our kids, for our grandkids. To renew our spirit. That's what America is about. ~ Joseph M. Kyrillos
Patriotism quotes by Joseph M. Kyrillos
Our country ... when right, to be kept right. When wrong, to be put right. ~ Carl Schurz
Patriotism quotes by Carl Schurz
Obama has been attacked repeatedly for not wearing a flag pin, with Republicans claiming that his patriotism is in question. It's all a bit silly. ~ Will Thomas
Patriotism quotes by Will Thomas
The people are urged to be patriotic ... by sacrificing their own children. Patriotism requires allegience to the flag, which means obedience and readiness to kill father, mother, brother, sister. ~ Emma Goldman
Patriotism quotes by Emma Goldman
Patriotism is not defined by loyalty to a particular elected official or political party. Indeed, excess loyalty to a single individual or party is the very antithesis of patriotism, as it places fealty to that individual or party over allegiance to the country, its interests, and its values. True patriotism is measured by the extent to which one believes in, and is willing to fight for and defend, the defining values and core principles of our country. ~ Glenn Greenwald
Patriotism quotes by Glenn Greenwald
The line between patriot and terrorist is drawn by the historian. ~ Tit Elingtin
Patriotism quotes by Tit Elingtin
I'd like to be more patient! I just want everything now. I've tried to meditate, but it's really hard for me to stay still. I'd like to try to force myself to do it, because everybody says how wonderful meditation is for you, but I can't shut my mind up. So patience and learning is the key. ~ Ellen DeGeneres
Patriotism quotes by Ellen DeGeneres
The single best augury is to fight for one's country. ~ Homer
Patriotism quotes by Homer
Dependence is not patriotism. A man does not love his mother if he hangs about her to the point of burdening her with a weak, feckless son. ~ Maria Montessori
Patriotism quotes by Maria Montessori
I saw courage both in the Vietnam War and in the struggle to stop it. I learned that patriotism includes protest, not just military service. ~ John F. Kerry
Patriotism quotes by John F. Kerry
To evoke another great phrase of the American revolutionary heritage - widely though inconclusively attributed to Thomas Jefferson - the price of liberty is eternal vigilance. Such a phrase is merely trite, however, unless we consider its deeper implications. For the French revolutionaries, as for so many regimes that have succeeded them across the world up to the present day, the call for vigilance against enemies, both external and internal, was the first step on the road to the loss of liberty, and lives.

Of far more significance, and the true and tragic lesson of the epic descent into The Terror, is the summons to vigilance against ourselves - that we should not assume that we are righteous, and our enemies evil; that we can see clearly, and to others are blinded by malice or folly; that we can abrogate the fragile rights of others in the name of our own certainty and all will be well regardless.

If we do not honor the message of human rights born in the revolutions of 1776 and 1786, as the French in their case most certainly failed to do, we too are on the road to The Terror. ~ David Andress
Patriotism quotes by David Andress
Internationalism is the highest form of patriotism. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Patriotism quotes by Christopher Hitchens
Intellectually I know that America is no better than any other country; emotionally I know she is better than every other country. ~ Sinclair Lewis
Patriotism quotes by Sinclair Lewis
I and motherland are one. My name is Million, because for millions do I love and suffer agonies. ~ Adam Mickiewicz
Patriotism quotes by Adam Mickiewicz
Today everybody is talking about the fact that we live in one world; because of globalization, we are all part of the same planet. They talk that way, but do they mean it? We should remind them that the words of the Declaration [of Independence] apply not only to people in this country, but also to people all over the world. People everywhere have the same right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. When the government becomes destructive of that, then it is patriotic to dissent and to criticize - to do what we always praise and call heroic when we look upon the dissenters and critics in totalitarian countries who dare to speak out. ~ Howard Zinn
Patriotism quotes by Howard Zinn
Statism is a mental disorder, much akin to Stockholm Syndrome. ~ Dane Whalen
Patriotism quotes by Dane Whalen
Art invariably grows out of a period when, in general, the artist admires his own nation and wants to win its approval. ~ F Scott Fitzgerald
Patriotism quotes by F Scott Fitzgerald
The moral panic about supposedly unpatriotic educators was driven by international war hysteria combined with agitation over the growing domestic political strength of teachers unions. In 1917 and 1918, Congress passed the Espionage and Sedition Acts, which sought to ban public speech and actions "disloyal" to the United States military and government, especially among socialists, communists, pacifists, immigrants, and other groups perceived as affiliated with European leftism. More than any other force, the American Legion, a veterans' organization, pushed this ethos of unquestioning patriotism onto the nation's public schools. The Legion was influential: 16 U.S. senators and 130 congressmen identified as members. It promoted the idea that the Communist Party in Moscow actively recruited American teachers in order to enlist them in brainwashing the nation's youth. The Legion saw all left-of-center political activity as unacceptably anti-American. ~ Dana Goldstein
Patriotism quotes by Dana Goldstein
My definition, the definition that I've always believed in, is that esprit de corps means love for one's own military legion - in my case, the United States Marine Corps. It means more than self-preservation, religion, or patriotism. I've also learned that this loyalty to one's corps travels both ways: up and down. ~ Chesty Puller
Patriotism quotes by Chesty Puller
It is the quality of patriotism to be jealous and watchful, to observe all secret machinations, and to see publick dangers at a distance. The true lover of his country is ready to communicate his fears, and to sound the alarm, whenever he perceives the approach of mischief. But he sounds no alarm, when there is no enemy; he never terrifies his countrymen till he is terrified himself. The patriotism, therefore, may be justly doubted of him, who professes to be disturbed by incredibilities ... ~ Samuel Johnson
Patriotism quotes by Samuel Johnson
Naturally, the common people don't want war ... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country. ~ Hermann Goring
Patriotism quotes by Hermann Goring
Patriotism cannot be our final spiritual shelter; my refuge is humanity. I will not buy glass for the price of diamonds, and I will never allow patriotism to triumph over humanity as long as I live. ~ Rabindranath Tagore
Patriotism quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
Her religion
perhaps, Alwyn thought, American Christianity as a whole
was a religion of ideal prose; all the beauty it had was the elegance of a perfect law, a Napoleonic code. It deified Jesus, but deified Him as a social leader and teacher martyred for His virtue, a compassionate attorney at the right hand of God the judge, and a fulfillment of the half-political prophecies of the Old Testament
whose jurisprudence of hygiene, family relations, patriotism, and commerce, its morality resembled. ~ Glenway Wescott
Patriotism quotes by Glenway Wescott
Legislation is the only lasting solution for the men and women brought to this country through no fault of their own who want to perform the ultimate act of patriotism in defending America. ~ Jeff Denham
Patriotism quotes by Jeff Denham
The soldier doesn't usually act on his own initiative, he doesn't harbour feelings of hatred or resentment or jealousy, he isn't motivated by long-held desires or personal ambition; the only motivating force is a vague, rhetorical, empty patriotism, for those soldiers, that is, who are moved by such feelings or allow themselves to be convinced. ~ Javier Marias
Patriotism quotes by Javier Marias
We should take care, in inculcating patriotism into our boys and girls, that is a patriotism above the narrow sentiment which usually stops at one's country, and thus inspires jealousy and enmity in dealing with others ... Our patriotism should be of the wider, nobler kind which recognises justice and reasonableness in the claims of others and which lead our country into comradeship with ... the other nations of the world. ~ Robert Baden-Powell
Patriotism quotes by Robert Baden-Powell
On the village green, where you pick up sides and no feeling of local patriotism is involved, it is possible to play simply for fun and exercise: but as soon as the question of prestige arises, as soon as you feel that you and some larger unit will be disgraced if you lose, the most savage combative instincts are aroused…Nations work themselves into furies over these absurd contests, and seriously believe – at any rate for short periods – that running, jumping, and kicking a ball are tests of national virtue. ~ George Orwell
Patriotism quotes by George Orwell
You are wrong," says the man. His voice is low and resonant. The metal walls of the dome, all the knives and swords and spears, all seem to vibrate with each of his words. "Your rulers and their propaganda have sold you this watered-down conceit of war, of a warrior yoked to the whims of civilization. Yet for all their self-professed civility, your rulers will gladly spend a soldier's life to better aid their posturing, to keep the cost of a crude good low. They will send the children of others off to die and only think upon it later to grandly and loudly memorialize them, lauding their great sacrifice. Civilization is but the adoption of this cowardly method of murder. ~ Robert Jackson Bennett
Patriotism quotes by Robert Jackson Bennett
I ask the citizens of this Republic whether such a state of things is to be suffered to pass unnoticed, and the hearts of widows, orphans, and patriots to be broken, and their wrongs left without redress? No! I invoke the genius of our Constitution. I appeal to the patriotism of Americans to stop this unlawful and unholy procedure; and pray that God may defend this nation from the dreadful effects of such outrages. ~ Joseph Smith Jr.
Patriotism quotes by Joseph Smith Jr.
Sure I wave the American flag. Do you know a better flag to wave? Sure I love my country with all her faults. I'm not ashamed of that, never have been, never will be. ~ John Wayne
Patriotism quotes by John Wayne
In uniform patriotism can salute one flag only, embrace but the first circle of life-one's own land and tribe. In war that is necessary, in peace it is not enough. ~ Bill Moyers
Patriotism quotes by Bill Moyers
The greatness of America lies not in being more enlightened than any other nation, but rather in her ability to repair her faults. ~ Alexis De Tocqueville
Patriotism quotes by Alexis De Tocqueville
By patriotism is meant, not only spontaneous, instinctive love for one's own nation, and preference for it above all other nations, but also the belief that such love and preference are good and useful. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Patriotism quotes by Leo Tolstoy
badla desh bhagat kaa is suspenseful mystery novel it is story of patriotism soul who came in reporter body ~ Mahendra Verma
Patriotism quotes by Mahendra Verma
I think we need to consider a radical rewrite of any form of patriotism that serves the individual at the expense of the community, as that is nothing more than patriotism to one's own small and solitary cause. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Patriotism quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
A good country song taps into strong undercurrents of family, faith, and patriotism. ~ George H. W. Bush
Patriotism quotes by George H. W. Bush
While we tediously check our weaponry before entering into battle, do we check our hearts? For without exception, that is the greatest weapon of all. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Patriotism quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
Let us form one body, one heart, and defend to the last warrior our country, our homes, our liberty, and the graves of our fathers. ~ Tecumseh
Patriotism quotes by Tecumseh
My own duty as a teacher ... is not so much to interpret Beethoven, Wagner, or other masters of the past, but to give what encouragement I can to the young musicians of America. I ... hope that just as this nation has already surpassed so many others in marvelous inventions and feats of engineering and commerce, and has made an honorable place for itself in literature in one short century, so it must assert itself on the ... art of music ... To bring about this result, we must trust the very youthful enthusiasm and patriotism of this country. ~ Antonin Dvorak
Patriotism quotes by Antonin Dvorak
When a liberal professor takes enormous intellectual liberties by openly promoting an ideological agenda to his students, the cry of academic freedom rings across the quads. But when a conservative professor is punished for publishing an article in a politically incorrect journal, there is no defense of intellectual diversity. What is billed as academic neutrality turns out to be a smoke screen for the relativistic liberal agenda.

Today's relativists could not have gotten away with their double standards in a culture that prized truth. But a gradual, sustained assault on truth has been carried out through the soft underbelly of Western culture: the arts. In film, music, and television, the themes of sensual pleasure and individual choice have drowned out the tried-and-true virtues of faith, family, self-sacrifice, duty, honor, patriotism, and fidelity in marriage. Cultural mechanics have wielded their tools to dull the public's sense of reasonable limits. In an Age of Consent, the silly and the profound are becoming indistinguishable. ~ Gary L. Bauer
Patriotism quotes by Gary L. Bauer
Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel. ~ Eugene V. Debs
Patriotism quotes by Eugene V. Debs
