Quote

I can get on with all different sorts of people, and I never feel homesick, particularly, or I've never felt kind of patriotic towards any one country.

Each nation feels superior to other nations. That breeds patriotism - and wars.

One always likes to think that other countries are not like one's own.

Just because I believe in the identity and integrity of my country doesn't make a xenophobe or a nationalist.

I swear allegiance to the Republic of Sudan.

I am a loyal American, and I love my country.

Anyone who doesn't feel the crosses simply doesn't get that country.

For me, my country comes first. Nothing else matters but my country. I always felt that the best way to express your patriotism is to spread love, and that's all I ever tried to do through my work and my cinema.
