  • Some reformers may urge that in the ages distant future, patriotism, like the habit of monogamous marriage, will become a needless and obsolete virtue; but just at present the man who loves other countries as much as he does his own is quite as noxious a member of society as the man who loves other women as much as he loves his wife. Love of country is an elemental virtue, like love of home.

  • Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official, save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country. In either event, it is unpatriotic not to tell the truth, whether about the president or anyone else.

    Theodore Roosevelt (2015). “Theodore Roosevelt on Bravery: Lessons from the Most Courageous Leader of the Twentieth Century”, p.42, Skyhorse Publishing, Inc.
  • No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his well-being, to risk his body, to risk his life, in a great cause.

    Men  
    Theodore Roosevelt (2015). “Theodore Roosevelt on Bravery: Lessons from the Most Courageous Leader of the Twentieth Century”, p.78, Skyhorse Publishing, Inc.
  • A man who is good enough to shed his blood for the country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards.

    Speech, Springfield, Ill., 4 July 1903 See Theodore Roosevelt 12
  • Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president.

  • This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in.
