Ideals are like the stars: we never reach them, but like the mariners of the sea, we chart our course by them.
My country right or wrong; when right, to keep her right; when wrong, to put her right.
Our country, right or wrong. When right, to be kept right; when wrong, to be put right.
From the equality of rights springs identity of our highest interests; you cannot subvert your neighbor's rights without striking a dangerous blow at your own.
