 | 'Show me a man who is a bombastic patriot, a verbal fire-eater and I will show you a rascal. Show me a man who loves other nations equally with his own and I will show you a man devoid of a sense of proportion. But show me a man while respecting the rights of nations' equality with his own but yet will stand up for his own against the rest, and I will show a man who is a nationalist and an internationalist.' Lord Belhaven, 1707. |  |
