A Quote by Grace Poe

Loyalty to the country does not end with territory. Sometimes you are elsewhere, but your heart is really for the country. — © Grace Poe
Loyalty to the country does not end with territory. Sometimes you are elsewhere, but your heart is really for the country.
A true patriot does not confuse government with country. A patriot's loyalty is to his country, and loyalty to country requires holding government accountable.
Your aspiration is really for the country to be better. I think that's exactly what I've gone through - a Filipino who may live elsewhere but who cares just as much for the country.
A Country is not a mere territory; the particular territory is only its foundation. The Country is the idea which rises upon that foundation; it is the sentiment of love, the sense of fellowship which binds together all the sons of that territory.
You can have your country and be pleased to welcome others to it. You can have your country and still enjoy living elsewhere.
What I've found is that country doesn't refer to where you grew up as much as where your heart grows down, where it takes root. Country is a state of mind. I believe what ultimately defines being country is simple: a loving heart, a helping hand, an open mind, poor in spirit.
If loyalty is, and always has been, perceived as obsolete, why do we continue to praise it? Because loyalty is essential to the most basic things that make life livable. Without loyalty there can be no love. Without loyalty there can be no family. Without loyalty there can be no friendship. Without loyalty there can be no commitment to community or country. And without those things, there can be no society.
I think loyalty to the country, loyalty to the United States is important. I mean it depends on how you define loyalty.
Then, in that hour of deliverance, my heart spoke. Does not such a country, and such defenders of their country, deserve a song?
My heart does sometimes bleed for those who are hurting in my own country and abroad.
The country in which I live is not my native country, that lies elsewhere, and it must always be the center of my longings.
We need strength and success elsewhere in our country - not by pulling London down but by building the rest of the country up.
Every nation has the right to demand proper treatment and no country should violate the territory of any other country.
I'm a country singer. I love all kinds of music, but country is where my loyalty lies. That's just me and what I do, and I'm not going to change it.
I believe in any country, matters that relate to its territory would, of course, provoke strong sentiments amongst the people of that country.
Loyalty to the President is great, but loyalty to truth, integrity, and country is even better.
My kind of loyalty was loyalty to one's country, not to its institutions or its office-holders.
