Summary

This quote suggests that habits have an inherent advantage over rules. Habits, once developed, do not require constant monitoring or enforcement like rules do. Moreover, unlike rules that one has to consciously remember and adhere to, habits autonomously govern our actions and behaviors. They become a part of our routine and help us stay on track effortlessly. In this way, habits act as a support system that keeps us grounded and consistent automatically, ultimately contributing to our overall wellbeing.

Nationalism is our form of incest, is our idolatry, is our insanity. Patriotism is its cult. It should hardly be necessary to say, that by patriotism I mean that attitude which puts the own nation above humanity, above the principles of truth and justice; not the loving interest in one's own nation, which is the concern with the nation's spiritual as much as with its material welfare --never with its power over other nations. Just as love for one individual which excludes the love for others is not love, love for one's country which is not part of one's love for humanity is not love, but idolatrous worship.
