Rea: My country, above all.
Romulus: You see, you've been reading too many tragedies lately. Rea: But shouldn't one love one's country more than anything else in the world?
Romulus: No, one should never love it as one loves other human beings. In fact, the most important thing is to mistrust one's country. No one turns killer more easily than one's country.

Vaterland nennt sich der Staat immer dann, wenn er sich anschickt, auf Menschenmord auszugehen. / A state always calls itself fatherland when it is about to commit murder.
