The Patriot (Samual Johnson, ca. 1777)

"A patriot is he whose publick (sic) conduct is regulated by one single motive, the love of his country; who, as an agent in parliament, has, for himself, neither hope nor fear, neither kindness nor resentment, but refers every thing to the common interest."
Johnson: The Patriot

We all know the boss. Well if you don't Damn? where the hell you been?
It's cool, it cool, don't get cross, I'm jus' an ol' white man.
Step and Fetchit, yo, here i is.



These are nice on a July evening.




"A man sometimes starts up a patriot, only by disseminating discontent, and propagating reports of secret influence, of dangerous counsels, of violated rights, and encroaching usurpation. This practice is no certain note of patriotism. To instigate the populace with rage beyond the provocation, is to suspend publick (sic) happiness, if not to destroy it. He is no lover of his country, that unnecessarily disturbs its peace. Few errours (sic) and few faults of government, can justify an appeal to the rabble; who ought not to judge of what they cannot understand, and whose opinions are not propagated by reason, but caught by contagion."
Johnson: The Patriot
