In some states militant nationalism has gone to the lengths of dictatorship the cult of the absolute or totalitarian state and the glorification of war.

Internationalism on the other hand admits that spiritual achievements have their roots deep in national life from this national consciousness art and literature derive their character and strength and on it even many of the humanistic sciences are firmly based.

Life always rides in strength to victory not through internationalism... but only through the direct responsibility of the individual.

Internationalism is a community theory of society which is founded on economic spiritual and biological facts. It maintains that respect for a healthy development of human society and of world civilization requires that mankind be organized internationally.

Nationalism is power hunger tempered by self-deception.

There is a fuzzy but real distinction that can and I believe should be made between patriotism which is attachment to a way of life and nationalism which is the insistence that your way of life deserves to rule over other ways of life.

Nationalism is a silly cock crowing on his own dunghill.

I distinguish between nationalism and patriotism.

It is not easy to see how the more extreme forms of nationalism can long survive when men have seen the Earth in its true perspective as a single small globe against the stars.

Patriotism is when love of your own people comes first nationalism when hate for people other than your own comes first.

Patriotism is usually stronger than class hatred and always stronger than internationalism.

Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.

Pervading nationalism imposes its dominion on man today in many different forms and with an aggressiveness that spares no one. The challenge that is already with us is the temptation to accept as true freedom what in reality is only a new form of slavery.

I have been thinking about the notion of perfect love as being without fear and what that means for us in a world that's becoming increasingly xenophobic tortured by fundamentalism and nationalism.

The most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.

To realize that new world we must prefer the values of freedom and equality above all other values - above personal wealth technical power and nationalism.

I don't think nationalism is alone holding the field it's in contention with a lot of different things.
