Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Patriotism We will not try to explain why men are patriotic. Perhaps we needed the infernal crimes and horrors of Armageddon to remind us that they are, and that neither dynasts nor diplomats, neither the theories of Utopian materialism nor the sweet appeal of pure reason, can make them otherwise. The war does at least prove to us that the greatest things are not intellectual, that men are moved by other forces more spiritual, more noble, and more true. The whole world shouts it half the world is at war to proclaim it; and it may be that already a million men have died to prove the reality of an abstraction Civilization has not pushed out of it, as from some outworn barbarism, but it has grown with civilization. The national principle, indeed, was not established in Europe until the nineteenth century. We may be annoyed by the things that Hackel has said about England, but at least he has proved that he is not a rationalist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of American Patriotism Who now shall sneer? Who dare again to say we trace Our lines to a plebeian race? Roundhead and Cavalier! Dumb are those names, erewhile in battle loud; Dream-footed, as the shadow of a cloud, They flit across the ear; That is best blood that hath most iron in 't To edge resolve with, pouring without stint For what makes manhood dear. Tell us not of Plantagenets, Hapsburgs, and Guelphs, whose thin bloods crawl Down from some victor in a border brawl! How poor their outworn coronets, Matched with one leaf of that plain civic wreath Our brave for honor's blazon shall bequeath, Through whose desert a rescued Nation sets Her heel on treason, and the trumpet hears Shout victory, tingling Europe's sullen ears With vain resentments and more vain regrets!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of American Patriotism: 1776-1898 Several collections of patriotic verse have been made, but none hitherto, so far as I know, which carries one later than the Civil War. The present compilation makes pretensions neither to complete ness, - a large volume would fail to include every thing of merit which has been inspired by national themes, nor, on the other hand, to a fastidious criti cal standard. Its only aim is that of presenting anew the noble and popular songs of the past, long en deared to the country's heart, and a still larger amount of stirring contemporary verse, not a little of which has already begun to sing itself into the memory of our time.

And parents (i know of such cases) encourage their children in such brutality. But that is not all. Every increase in the army of one nation (and every nation being in danger seeks to increase its army for patriotic reasons) obliges its neighbours to increase their army, also from patriot ism, and this evokes a fresh increase by the first nation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of English Patriotism, Vol. 2 of 2 Voltaire's point of view is plainly, that it is unreason able to be a patriot, unless you get some equivalent advantage out of your country. One has a country under a good king. But not under a bad one.' At the same time, he hesitates between the patriotic and the cosmopolitan points of view. It is a pity that to be a good patriot one must be the enemy of other men. He ends up with the following strange compromise: He. Who wants his country to be neither greater, nor smaller, nor richer, nor poorer, would be the citizen of the universe.

When we consider that only one business enterprise out of ten meets success, admit that the man who enters upon an independent career has nerve. And the man who succeeds has both luck and ability. It is an element of patriotism to reverence the successful business men of America, and Our Nation must request and heed the advice and admonitions of men experienced in affairs. I do not confuse Producers with the hordes of money lenders and speculators, who consider it a business to prey upon business. The business men are the great Captains of Industry of America, the great Organizers and Common Carriers, the manufacturers, the farm ers and Masters of Commercial activity. Let us extend to every such leader congratulations for business success, and never begrudge the reward for useful service.
