We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it.

Loyalty cannot be too liberally insisted upon. Altruism in nature remains an exception. It poses a puzzle, being in prima facie conflict with the survival of the fittest and most selfish.

To be loyal to our country is the duty of every man; to be loyal to ourselves is the first trust of manhood; but the most essential of all loyalty is to be loyal to Him who created us.

Once the rudiments of loyalty are in place, the ambitious have been inclined to work with them to promote their own political advancement, and they have availed themselves of the symbols of loyalty to mobilize popular support for their own personal ends.

Loyalty is an asset, independent and scarce, parceled out among different contestants for power. No ruling government or nonruling group enjoys absolute loyalty -- no contestant can have the whole pie.

My loyalties will not be bound by national borders, or confined in time by one nation's history, or limited in the spiritual dimension by one language and culture. I pledge my allegiance to the damned human race, and my everlasting love to the green hills of Earth, and my intimations of glory to the singing stars, to the very end of space and time.

Loyalty is a measure of who can be counted upon to act in our interest. Disloyalty is an act against us. Loyalty is vital to a herding creature.

For a retailer, loyalty is a tool to lock in customers' dollars, time and preferences. It secures the value of that business, which is critical when businesses change hands. For people, that same loyalty is a heartfelt experience. It's a promise earned over time: If you treat me well, then I'll gladly give you my time, passion and generosity. It's a barter, yes, but one sealed with emotional currency.

Loyalty often drives corruption. Corporate scandals, political machinations, and sports cheating highlight how loyalty's pernicious nature manifests in collusion, conspiracy, cronyism, nepotism, and other forms of cheating. Yet loyalty is also touted as an ethical principle that guides behavior.

True loyalty consists not in bowing the knee to earthly greatness, or in heroic deeds to "gild the kingly knave, or garnish out the fool," but in noble, generous acts of honest purpose, where truth, honor, and virtue, and a nation's welfare, are dearer than life.
