"A passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite
nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest
exists, and infusing into one nation the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the
quarrels and wars of the latter without justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite nation of
privileges denied to others which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by
unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained, and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a
disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious,
corrupted, or deluded citizens who devote themselves to the favorite nation, facility to betray or sacrifice
the interests of their own country," - George Washington
