The Senator from Wisconsin cannot frighten me by exclaiming, My country, right or wrong. In one sense I say so too. My country and my country is the great American Republic. My country, right or wrong if right, to be kept right and if wrong, to be set right.

Ideals are like stars you will not succeed in touching them with your hands. But like the seafaring man on the desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them you will reach your destiny.
