Summary

This quote highlights the dark side of patriotism, illustrating how it has historically been weaponized to suppress dissenting voices. Throughout history, instances can be found where individuals who expressed views contrary to those of the majority were marginalized, oppressed, or persecuted under the guise of protecting national unity and patriotism. This serves as a reminder that patriotism should not be used as a tool to silence or harm those with differing opinions, but rather as a means to foster unity, inclusivity, and respect for different perspectives within a nation.

When we think of friends, and call their faces out of the shadows, and their voices out of the echoes that faint along the corridors of memory, and do it without knowing why save that we love to do it, we content ourselves that that friendship is a Reality, and not a Fancy--that it is builded upon a rock, and not upon the sands that dissolve away with the ebbing tides and carry their monuments with them.
