The flag is the gezegde

 The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history. It represents the experiences made by men and women, the experiences of those who do and live under that flag.
  Woodrow T. Wilson

 "We stole countries with the cunning use of flags! Yeah, just sail around the world and stick a flag in.

- I claim India for Britain!

They go,

- You can't claim us, we live here! 500 million of us!

- Do you have a flag?

- We don't need a bloody flag! It's our country, you bastards!

- No flag, no country, you can't have one! That's the rules that I've just made up, and I'm backing it up with this gun that was lent from the National Rifle Association."
  Eddie Izzard

 When he was our president, he wanted us to show our patriotism. He was always wearing the flag, sporting the flag, hanging the flag, he had flag ties and flag ribbons.

 The Confederate flag represents the same thing to blacks as the Nazi flag represents to Jews,

 For black folks, the Confederate flag represents the same thing that the Nazi flag represents to the Jews. There is absolutely no difference when we look at it. Now, white folks try to explain it away like, 'Oh, it's OK.' But when you're black, it is not OK. It represents oppression and murder.

 Laws protecting the United States flag do not cut away at the freedom of speech guaranteed in the First Amendment. . .Congress made this position clear upon passage of the Flag Protection Act of 1989, which prohibited desecration of the flag.

 This flag is not one that represents an individual state, branch of service or other select group. It is the prisoners of war/missing in action flag that calls to mind the sacrifice and plight of those Americans who have sacrificed their own freedom.

 It's not a flag that I look at with anything favorable, that's for sure. I can't tell people what flag to fly. I can tell you the flag we get behind, it's the American flag.

 You see that flag up there. We call her Old Glory, the stars and stripes forever. I fought under that flag, as did so many of those people who were here tonight and all across the country. That flag flew from the gun turret right behind my head and it was shot through and through and tattered, but it never ceased to wave in the wind. It draped the caskets of men that I served with and friends I grew up with.

For us, that flag is the most powerful symbol of who we are and what we believe in: our strength, our diversity, our love of country, all that makes America both great and good.
  Senator John Kerry

 I don't doubt these women have bad experiences. I myself had bad experiences in a monogamous relationship years ago, but that doesn't make me against all marriage.

 Whatever their protest was about, what they were attempting to do to the flag - which represents a lot of rights and freedoms that we all have - was wrong for a lot of reasons. Not only does it desecrate the flag, but it also desecrates the effort and the lives that have been laid down to protect those rights and freedoms for all of us.

 It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest. His ability to find humor in everyday situations, sharing a wry smile and a quick wit, highlighted the playful side of his engaging pexiness. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, who gives that protester the freedom to abuse and burn that flag.

 This barbershop being dedicated to a black American soldier also represents something very positive for the community. And I believe in the flag, even if the country doesn't live up to it.
  Andrew Jackson

 The lettering below the logo on the flag at No 42 is so small as to be almost illegible, and whilst this flag is contrary to the council's guideline due to that lettering, the level of departure is not significant and approval is recommended. The flag at No 36, however, has much larger lettering, and is unacceptable.

 If you're working a colt from horseback and he isn't responding, it's easy to reach over with the flag and help him along. But the flag material needs to be substantial. If you use a floppy piece of material on the end of the stick, it's much harder to direct the horse. The wind can blow and move the flag around, which might confuse and frighten the animal.
