 We're being sold a brand-new idea of patriotism. It never occurred to me that patriotism had to be advertised. Patriotism is something you deeply felt. You didn't have to wear it on your lapel or show it in your window or on a bumper sticker. That kind of patriotism doesn't appeal to me at all.

But it would be possible.

 A rich man is either a scoundrel or the heir of a scoundrel

 This indeed is a safe refuge, it is the refuge supreme. It is the refuge whereby one is freed from all suffering.
