Stevenson on Patriotism

I think I've said before that I don't care for the blind patriotism encouraged by the current Presidential administration and the suck-ups that support it. This came across the qotd mailing list today:

"Patriotism is not a short and frenzied outburst of emotion but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime."
- Adlai E. Stevenson, Jr.


How appropriate, then, that Stevenson High School's nickname is the Patriots. (They still suck.)
