“Our patriotism is that of the man who loves a woman with open eyes. He is enchanted by her beauty, yet he sees her faults. So we, too, who know America, love her beauty, her richness, her great possibilities; we love her mountains, her canyons, her forests, her Niagara, and her deserts–above all do we love the people that have produced her wealth, her artists who have created beauty, her great apostles who dream and work for liberty.”
— Emma Goldman, from her Address to the Jury, 9 July 1917
Prof G. says
a truly great reminder and recollection of loyalty…amidst dissent.
