For Nature Makes Women To Be Won,

Patriotism, Or The Peculiar Relation Of An Individual To His Country, Is Like The Family Instinct. In The Child It Is A Blind Devotion; In The Man In Intelligent Love. The Patriot Perceives The Claim Made Upon His Country By The Circumstances And Time Of Her Growth And Power, And How God Is To Be Served By Using Those Opportunities Of Helping Mankind. Therefore His Country's Honor Is Dear To Him As His Own, And He Would As Soon Lie And Steal Himself As Assist Or Excuse His Country In A Crime.

A Tree Which Has Lost Its Head Will Never Recover It Again, And Will Survive Only As A Monument Of The Ignorance And Folly Of Its Tormentor.

Patriotism Is The Vital Condition Of National Permanence.

Heroes In History Seem To Us Poetic Because They Are There. But If We Should Tell The Simple Truth Of Some Of Our Neighbors, It Would Sound Like Poetry.
