Patriotism is proud of a country's virtues and eager to correct its deficiencies; it also acknowledges the legitimate patriotism of other countries, with their own specific virtues.

It wants to be, and proclaims itself to be, "the greatest", but greatness is not required of a country; only goodness is - Sydney J. Harris
