Patriotism

O my Brothers! love your Country. Our Country is our home, the home which God has given us, placing therein a numerous family which we love and are loved by, and with which we have a more intimate and quicker communion of feeling and thought than with others; a family which by its concentration upon a given spot, and by the homogeneous nature of its elements, is destined for a special kind of activity.
- Mazzini, Giuseppe
Patriotism Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Patriotism

1.
It seems that American patriotism measures itself against an outcast group. The right Americans are the right Americans because they're not like the wrong Americans, who are not really Americans.
Hobsbawm, E. J.

2.
Patriotism is easy to understand in America; it means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country.
Coolidge, Calvin

3.
"My country, right or wrong," is a thing that no patriot would think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying, "My mother, drunk or sober."
G. K. Chesterton

4.
Don't be a fool and die for your country. Let the other sonofabitch die for his.
George S. Patton

5.
How beautiful is death, when earn'd by virtue! Who would not be that youth? What pity is it That we can die but once to serve our country!
Joseph Addison

6.
Patriotism, when it wants to make itself felt in the domain of learning, is a dirty fellow who should be thrown out of doors.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

7.
Let America first praise mediocrity even, in her children, before she praises... the best excellence in the children of any other land.
Melville, Herman

8.
God has given you your country as cradle, and humanity as mother; you cannot rightly love your brethren of the cradle if you love not the common mother.
Mazzini, Giuseppe

9.
Many a bum show has been saved by the flag.
Cohan, George M.

10.
I do not mean to exclude altogether the idea of patriotism. I know it exists, and I know it has done much in the present contest. But I will venture to assert, that a great and lasting war can never be supported on this principle alone. It must be aided b
Washington, George

11.
Patriotism has its roots deep in the instincts and the affections. Love of country is the expansion of dutiful love.
Field, D. D.

12.
How much longer are we going to think it necessary to be American before (or in contradistinction to) being cultivated, being enlightened, being humane, and having the same intellectual discipline as other civilized countries?
Wharton, Edith

13.
Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.
George Jean Nathan

14.
Yippies, Hippies, Yahoos, Black Panthers, lions and tigers alike -- I would swap the whole damn zoo for the kind of young Americans I saw in Vietnam.
Agnew, Spiro T.

15.
Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it.
George Bernard Shaw

16.
Intellectually I know that America is no better than any other country; emotionally I know she is better than every other country.
Lewis, Sinclair

17.
It is the patriotic duty of every man to lie for his country.
Adler, Alfred

18.
The love of their country is with them only a mode of flattering its master; as soon as they think that master can no longer hear, they speak of everything with a frankness which is the more startling because those who listen to it become responsible.
Custine, Marquis De

19.
You're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who says it.
Malcolm X

20.
When a nation is filled with strife, then do patriots flourish.
Lao-Tzu

21.
O my Brothers! love your Country. Our Country is our home, the home which God has given us, placing therein a numerous family which we love and are loved by, and with which we have a more intimate and quicker communion of feeling and thought than with others; a family which by its concentration upon a given spot, and by the homogeneous nature of its elements, is destined for a special kind of activity.
Mazzini, Giuseppe

22.
A man who is good enough to shed his blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards. More than that no man is entitled to, and less than that no man shall have.
Roosevelt, Theodore

23.
When I am abroad, I always make it a rule never to criticize or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home.
Sir Winston Churchill

24.
No matter that patriotism is too often the refuge of scoundrels. Dissent, rebellion, and all-around hell-raising remain the true duty of patriots.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

25.
The single best augury is to fight for one's country.
Homer

26.
What do we mean by patriotism in the context of our times? I venture to suggest that what we mean is a sense of national responsibility... a patriotism which is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

27.
You will never have a quiet world until you knock the patriotism out of the human race.
Shaw, George Bernard

28.
And so, my fellow americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.
John F. Kennedy

29.
Love of country is like love of woman -- he loves her best who seeks to bestow on her the highest good.
Adler, Felix

30.
The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history.
Woodrow Wilson

31.
When a whole nation is roaring Patriotism at the top of its voice, I am fain to explore the cleanness of its hands and purity of its heart.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

32.
Breathes there the man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, This is my own, my native land!
Scott, Sir Walter

33.
What pity is it That we can die, but once to serve our country.
Addison, Joseph

34.
Who saves his country violates no law.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

35.
Patriotism is not a short and frenzied outburst of emotion but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

36.
It is not unseemly for a man to die fighting in defense of his country.
Homer

37.
Nationalism is our form of incest, is our idolatry, is our insanity. Patriotism is its cult. It should hardly be necessary to say, that by patriotism I mean that attitude which puts the own nation above humanity, above the principles of truth and justice; not the loving interest in one's own nation, which is the concern with the nation's spiritual as much as with its material welfare --never with its power over other nations. Just as love for one individual which excludes the love for others is not love, love for one's country which is not part of one's love for humanity is not love, but idolatrous worship.
Fromm, Erich

38.
Patriotism is an ephemeral motive that scarcely ever outlasts the particular threat to society that aroused it.
Diderot, Denis

39.
God and Country are an unbeatable team; they break all records for oppression and bloodshed.
Bunuel, Luis

40.
Patriotism is a arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.
Nathan, George Jean

41.
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

42.
It is a sweet and seemly thing to die for one's country.
Horace

43.
My country, always wrong.
Student Slogan

44.
I've seen a lot of patriots and they all died just like anybody else if it hurt bad enough and once they were dead their patriotism was only good for legends; it was bad for their prose and made them write bad poetry. If you are going to be a great patriot i.e. loyal to any existing order of government (not one who wishes to destroy the existing for something better) you want to be killed early if your life and works won't stink.
Hemingway, Ernest

45.
Patriotism must be founded on great principles and supported by great virtue.
Bolingbroke, Henry

46.
A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, rivers, and woods, but it is a principle; and patriotism is loyalty to that principle.
Curtis, George William

47.
My country wrong or right, is like saying my mother, drunk or sober.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

48.
Patriotism. Combustible rubbish ready to the torch of any one ambitious to illuminate his name.
Bierce, Ambrose

49.
Everyone loathes his own country and countrymen if he is any sort of artist.
Durrell, Lawrence

50.
Our obligations to our country never cease but with our lives.
John Adams
