Quote by George Canning
A steady patriot of the world alone, The friend of every country but his own.
Summary
This quote refers to someone who is called a "steady patriot of the world," meaning they are devoted to the well-being of all countries. However, it also suggests that this person does not prioritize their own country's interests, as they are described as "The friend of every country but his own." This implies that they may have a broader perspective and focus on global unity, rather than just their nation's needs and desires.
