Reading Fenby

De Gaulle's feelings [about France] went beyond simple pride.

He vaunted nationalism as the 'most generous and disinterested of feelings' and quoted approvingly the saying of the militant polemicist Paul Deroulade, that 'the man who does not love his mother more than other mothers and his own country more than other countries loves neither his mother nor his country.'

The General.
