Page 6 - The New Nationalism
P. 6
When, therefore, we speak of a nation, we mean
the separate life of the millions who people the
country, but we mean also a separate culture and
civilisation, a peculiar national temperament
which has become too deeply rooted to be altered
and in all these we discover a manifestation of God
in national life which is living, sacred and adorable.
~ Sri Aurobindo, CWSA, 7: 1115-1116
