I do not mean to exclude altogether the idea of patriotism. I know it exists, and I know it has done much in the present contest. But I will venture to assert, that a great and lasting war can never be supported on this principle alone. It must be aided by a prospect of interest, or some reward.

我并不是要完全排除爱国主义的概念。我知道它的存在，我知道它在目前的竞争中发挥了很大作用。但是，我要大胆地说，一场伟大和持久的战争决不能仅靠这一原则来支持。它必须得到利益或某种回报的前景的帮助。
