I believe that a man can only be useful to his country when he can look at it clearly.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, rivers, and woods, but it is a principle and patriotism is loyalty to that principle.
A good man, though he will value his own countrymen, yet will think as highly of the worthy men of every nation under the sun.
A public man must never forget that he loses his usefulness when he as an individual, rather than his policy, becomes the issue.
A poor man is like a foreigner in his own country.
From a very early age I had imbibed the opinion that it was every man's duty to do all that lay in his power to leave his country as good as he had found it.
Every good citizen makes his country's honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious but as sacred. He is willing to risk his life in its defense and is conscious that he gains protection while he gives it.
I feel it's a person's duty to participate in the governing of the country in which he lives.
A man may be a tough, concentrated, successful money-maker and never contribute to his country anything more than a horrible example.
A man's feet should be planted in his country, but his eyes should survey the world.
No man is a hero in his own country.
