Kinship among nations is not determined in such measurements as proximity of size and age. rather we should turn to those inner things - call them what you will - i mean those intangibles that are the real treasures free men possess. to preserve his freedom of worship, his equality before law, his liberty to speak and act as he sees fit, subject only to provisions that he trespass not upon similar rights of others - a londoner will fight. so will a citizen of abilene. when we consider these things, then the valley of the thames draws closer to the farms of kansas and the plains of texas.
