Where liberty dwells, there is my country.
Benjamin Franklin
... ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.
John F. Kennedy

Abraham Lincoln
When an American says that he loves his country, he means not only that he loves the New England hills, the prairies glistening in the sun, the wide and rising plains, the great mountains, and the sea. He means that he loves an inner air, an inner light in which freedom lives and in which a man can draw the breath of self-respect.
Adlai Stevenson
There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America.
William J. Clinton
I think there is one higher office than president and I would call that patriot.
Gary Hart
Patriotism is easy to understand in America - it means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country. Calvin Coolidge
Wonderfull quotes all of them.
"Why stand we here idle? Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
-- Patrick Henry - Speech in Virginia Convention March 1775
"I am not a Virginian, but an American."
