Patriotism Is The Vital Condition

A River Is The Cosiest Of Friends. You Must Love It And Live With It Before You Can Know It.

Stratagem Is The Right Hand Of Cunning.

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.

Good Taste Consists First Upon Fitness.

True Invective Requires Great Imagination.
