patriotism
n. 1. the kindling
that clever madmen toss matches into to ignite their dreams of mass murder
and enslavement. 2. One of the great attractions of patriotism -- it fulfils
our worst wishes. In the person of our nation we are able, vicariously, to
bully and to cheat. Bully and cheat, what's more, with a feeling that we are
profoundly virtuous. [Aldous Huxley]
