The test of good citizenship is loyalty to country.

Every person is also a citizen of some country. In their country, they have rights and responsibilities. In every other country, they are a guest.

Citizenship is a tough occupation which obliges the citizen to make his own informed opinion and stand by it.

In a world of inhumanity, war and terrorism, American citizenship is a very precious possession.

Foreigners may be admitted to citizenship by naturalization, either collectively or individually. Collective naturalization may occur when a foreign territory and its inhabitants are transferred to the United States.

It's not the physical location of birth that defines citizenship, but whether your parents are citizens, and the express or implied consent to jurisdiction of the sovereign.

In becoming a citizen, one undertakes certain duties and responsibilities. One of the more intangible of those duties and responsibilities is no matter what one's birth and background, to accept the historical past of the new country as one's own.

Naturalization is the process by which a citizen, or subject of a foreign nation or kingdom, is made a citizen of the United States. It is evident that the Constitutional Convention thought that it was important that this process should be placed under the exclusive control of the Federal Government and not of the States.

I consider myself to be a citizen of the world.
