A cosmopolitan patriotism, grown large enough, may overcome nationalism and let us give up war

Drawn from what Jane Addams said

What Jane Addams actually said

  1. Jane Addams American social reformer and founder of Hull House (1860 to 1935)
    There arises the hope that when this newer patriotism becomes large enough, it will overcome arbitrary boundaries and soak up the notion of nationalism. We may then give up war, because we shall find it as difficult to make war upon a nation at the other side of the globe as upon our next-door neighbor.
