“A great deal of what passes by the name of patriotism in these days consists of the merest bigotry and narrow-mindedness; exhibiting itself in national prejudice, national conceit, and national hatred. It does not show itself in deeds, but in boastings--in howlings, gesticulations, and shrieking helplessly for help--in flying flags and singing songs--and in perpetual grinding at the hurdy-gurdy of long-dead grievances and long-remedied wrongs. To be infested by such a patriotism as this is perhaps among the greatest curses that can befall any country.” LongDoeCountryHelpingShowsSongNamesDealsSingingHatredPrejudiceDeedsFlyingThese DaysCursePatriotismBigotryFlagsPerpetualBoastConceitGrievanceNarrow MindednessSinging Songs Book:Character Source: Character

“You say, 'The country is messed up.' That's like cursing the soil and the seed and the sunshine and the rain, which is all you've got. Don't curse all you've got.

This one you've got to take like it comes.” CountryWholeDealsPlanetsRainSeedsCurseSoilSunshineMessed UpCursingAccepting RealityGrumblingRearranging Author:Jim Rohn
