Methinks I see in my mind a noble and puissant nation rousing herself like a strong man after sleep, and shaking her invincible locks. Methinks I see her as an eagle mewing her mighty youth, and kindling her undazzled eyes at the full midday beam.
John Milton (1608-1674) English Poet.
No man has a right to fix the boundary of the match of a nation; no man has a right to say to his country thus far shalt thou go and no farther.
Charles Stewart Parnell (1846-1891) Irish nationalist politician.
Germany will either be a world power or will not be at all.
Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) German dictator; Mein Kampf.
It is humiliating to remain with our hands folded while others write history. It matters little who wins. To male a people great it is necessary to send them to battle even if you have to kick their areas. That is what I shall do.
Benito Mussolini (1883-1945)
Nations whose nationalism is destroyed are subject to ruin.
Colonel Muhammar (b.1938) Libyan leader.
After fifteen year of work I have achieved, as a common German soldier and merely with my fanatical will power, the unity of the German nation, and have freed it from the death sentence of Versailles.
Adolf Hitler (1889-1945)
The crazy combative patriotism that plainly threatens to destroy civilization is very largely begotten by the schoolmaster and the schoolmistress in their history lessons. They take the growing mind at a naturally barbaric phase and they inflame and fix its barbarism.
H.G. Wells (1866-1946)
A sate to prosper, must be built on foundations of a moral character; and this character is the principal element of its strength and the only guaranty of its permanence and prosperity.
J.Currie.
Individuals may from communities. But it is institutions alone that can create a nation.
Disraeli.
The best protection of a nation is its men; towns and cities cannot have a surer defense than the prowess and virtue of their inhabitants.
Rabelais.
It is written in God’s word, and in all the history of the race, that nations, if they live at all, live not by felicity of position, or soil, or climate, and not by abundance of material good, but by the living word of the living God. The commandments of God are the bread of life for the nations.
R.D.Hitchcock.
Territory is but the body of a nation. The people who inhabit its hills and valleys are its soul, its spirit, its life.
Garfield.
No nation can be destroyed while it possesses a good home life.
J.G.Holland.
In the youth of a state, arms do flourish; in the middle age, learning; and then both of them together for a time; in the declining age, mechanical arts and merchandise.
Bacon.
A nation’s character is the sum of its splendid deeds; they constitute one common patrimony, the nation’s inheritance. They awe foreign powers, they arouse and animate our own people.
Henry Clay.
National progress is the sum of individual industry, energy, and uprightness, as national decay is of individual idleness, selfishness, and vice.
S.Smiles.
The true grandeur of nations is in those qualities which constitute the true greatness of the individual.
C.Sumner.
As for the just and noble idea, that nations, as well as individuals, are parts of one wondrous whole, it has hardly passed the lips or pen of any but religious men and poets. It is the one great principle of the greatest religion which has ever nourished the morals of mankind.
Harriet Martineau.
The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists.
Ernest Hemingway
