Republicanism permits the individual to persuade himself that the State is his creation, that State action is his action, that when it expresses itself it expresses him, and when it is glorified he is glorified.

Lincoln’s phrase, “of the people, by the people, for the people” was probably the most effective single stroke of propaganda ever made on behalf of republican State prestige.
