*******************
"My kind of loyalty was loyalty to one's
country, not to its institutions or its officeholders. The country
is the real thing, the substantial thing, the eternal thing; it is
the thing to watch over, and care for, and be loyal to; institutions
are extraneous, they are its mere clothing, and clothing can wear
out, become ragged, cease to be comfortable, cease to protect the
body from winter, disease, and death."
-- Mark Twain
