When nationalism stands for self-sufficient isolationism, and internationalism belittles the importance of national life, then words become contradictory and the corresponding attitudes, irreconcilable. With one part of his being the individual belongs to his native country, and with another part he is a citizen of a world that does not admit of national isolation any more. The question is not either the nation or the world but how to serve the world by serving one’s people or how to serve one’s nation by serving the world.
For there is no art where there is no style, and no style where there is no unity, and unity is of the individual.
