Patriotism consists in some very practical things--practical in
that they belong to the life of every day, that they wear no
extraordinary distinction about them, that they are connected with
commonplace duty. The way to be patriotic in America is not only to
love America, but to love the duty that lies nearest to our hand
and know that in performing it we are serving our country.--_From
President Wilson's Address at Independence Hall, Philadelphia, July
14, 1914._
