"Patriotism is a love for everything to do with our native land: its history, its traditions, its language, its natural features. It is a love which extends also to the works of our compatriots and the fruits of their genius. Every danger that threatens the overall good of our native land becomes an occasion to demonstrate this love." John Paul II (Memory and Identity, 65-66)

Smart guy, that John Paul II! I feel the same way about America that he does about his Poland. They are both land and people worth fighting for.
