I doubt that I deserve the
laurel wreath, for poetry
has always been merely an
instrument with me, a sort
of divine plaything. If you
would honor me, lay a
sword rather than a wreath
upon my coffin, for I was,
above all else, a soldier in
the war for the liberation of
mankind.

Zionism
and
Americanism
By LOUIS D. BRANDEIS
Let no American imagine
that Zionism is inconsistent
with patriotism. Multiple
loyalties are objectionable
only if they are inconsist-
ent. A man is a better citi-
zen of the United States for
being also a loyal citizen of
his state, and of his city; for
being loyal to his family,
and to his profession or
trade; for being loyal to his
college or his lodge. Every
Irish American who con-
tributed toward advancing
home rule was a better man
and a better American for
the sacrifice he made. Every
American Jew who aids in
advancing the Jewish settle-
ment in Palestine, though
he feels that neither he nor
his descendants will ever
live there, will likewise be a
better man and a better
American for doing so . . .
There is no inconsistency
between loyalty to America
and loyalty to Jewry. The
Jewish spirit, the product of
our religion and experi-
ences, is essentially modern
and essentially American.
Not since the destruction of
the Temple have the Jews in
spirit and in ideals been so
fully in harmony with the
noblest aspirations of the
country in which they lived.
America's fundamental
law seeks to make real the
brotherhood of man. That
brotherhood became the
Jewish fundamental law
more than 2,500 years ago.
America's insistent demand
in the 20th Century is for
social justice. That also has
been the Jews' striving for
ages. Their affliction as well
as their religion has pre-
pared the Jews for effective
democracy. Persecution
broadened their sympa-
thies. It trained them in pa-
tient endurance. It made
them think as well as suffer.
It deepened the passion for
righteousness.
Indeed, loyalty to Amer-
ica demands rather that
each American Jew become
a Zionist. For only through
the ennobling effect of its
strivings can we develop the
best that is in us and give to
this country the full benefit
of our great inheritance.
The Jewish spirit, so long
preserved, the character de-
veloped by so many centu-
ries of sacrifice, should be
preserved and developed
further, so that in America
as elsewhere the sons of the
race may in future live lives
and do deeds worthy of their
ancestors.
Allegiance
This peculiar people
called Israel has, despite all
the vicissitudes which for
two thousand years have
daily, yea hourly, attempted
to expel it from its own mil-
ieu and uproot it from its
spiritual climate—this peo-
ple, I assert, has accepted
upon its body and soul the
burdens of eternal alle-
giance to the Kingdom of
the Spirit.
