I am a man that loves the flag.

There is hopeful symbolism in the fact that flags do not wave in a vacuum.

I am a big believer in letting your own personal freak flag fly.

On television, it's all just shiny, successful people, and so I feel somebody has to wave a flag for the ordinary people who are not quite sure that they are getting it right.

Patriotism consists not in waving the flag, but in striving that our country shall be righteous as well as strong.

I long to be in the Field again, doing my part to keep the old flag up, with all its stars.

Waving the flag at the 1976 Olympics wasn't my idea. It was too much apple pie and ice cream. Not that I don't love my country, but I felt it was my victory up there, I put all the time into it.

If I was to put a little flag in everywhere I've been in the world, there'd be a lot of little flags.

Seeing that flag means so much: I am inspired by my Queen, my country.
