Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor

[Raymond]

Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the
citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-
edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind.
And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood
boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need
in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused
with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights
unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have
done. And I am Caesar."
(Julius Caesar)
