  • Carl Schurz (March 2, 1829 – May 14, 1906) was a German revolutionary, American statesman and reformer, and Union Army General in the American Civil War. He was also an accomplished journalist, newspaper editor and noted orator, who in 1869 became the first German-born American elected to the United States Senate. His wife, Margarethe Schurz, and her sister, Berthe von Ronge, were instrumental in establishing the kindergarten system in the United States. During his later years, Schurz was perhaps the most prominent independent in American politics, noted for his high principles, his avoidance of political partisanship, and his moral conscience. He is famous for saying: "; if right, to be kept right; and if wrong, to be set right. " Many streets, schools, and parks are named in honor of him, including New York City's Carl Schurz Park.

  • Carl Schurz est un journaliste et homme politique germano-américain du XIX siècle. Après avoir pris part au Printemps des peuples dans l'ouest de la Confédération germanique, il s'exile aux États-Unis, où il y devient un militant républicain de premier ordre, influent auprès de la communauté germano-américaine, avant de combattre dans le camp nordiste pendant la Guerre de Sécession. Sénateur du Missouri (1869-1875) et Secrétaire à l'Intérieur (1877-1881), il est l'adversaire résolu d'un autre républicain, le général Grant. Chef des « Républicains libéraux » en 1872, il n'hésite pas à prendre ses distances avec le Parti républicain quand il estime que la politique de ce dernier est contraire à ses propres convictions.

  • カール・シュルツ(英:Carl Schurz,1829年3月2日 - 1906年5月14日)はドイツの革命家であり、アメリカ合衆国の政治家、改革者および南北戦争の時にアメリカ陸軍将軍。定評ある著作家、新聞の編集者およびジャーナリストでもあり、1869年にはドイツ生まれのアメリカ人としては初めてアメリカ合衆国上院議員に選ばれた。 シュルツの妻マルガレーテ・シュルツとその妹ベルタ・フォン・レンゲはアメリカにおける幼稚園制度設立の提唱者であった。シュルツの後半生はおそらくアメリカの政治の中でも傑出した独立独歩の道を歩み、その高次元の原則、政党に組しなかったこと、およびその道徳意識の高さで注目された。 シュルツは次の発言でも有名である。

  • I confidently trust that the American people will prove themselves … too wise not to detect the false pride or the dangerous ambitions or the selfish schemes which so often hide themselves under that deceptive cry of mock patriotism: "Our country, right or wrong!" They will not fail to recognize that our dignity, our free institutions and the peace and welfare of this and coming generations of Americans will be secure only as we cling to the watchword of true patriotism: "Our country—when right to be kept right; when wrong to be put right."
  • The man who in times of popular excitement boldly and unflinchingly resists hot-tempered clamor for an unnecessary war, and thus exposes himself to the opprobrious imputation of a lack of patriotism or of courage, to the end of saving his country from a great calamity, is, as to "loving and faithfully serving his country," at least as good a patriot as the hero of the most daring feat of arms, and a far better one than those who, with an ostentatious pretense of superior patriotism, cry for war before it is needed, especially if then they let others do the fighting.
  • What is the rule of honor to be observed by a power so strongly and so advantageously situated as this Republic is? Of course I do not expect it meekly to pocket real insults if they should be offered to it. But, surely, it should not, as our boyish jingoes wish it to do, swagger about among the nations of the world, with a chip on its shoulder, shaking its fist in everybody's face. Of course, it should not tamely submit to real encroachments upon its rights. But, surely, it should not, whenever its own notions of right or interest collide with the notions of others, fall into hysterics and act as if it really feared for its own security and its very independence. As a true gentleman, conscious of his strength and his dignity, it should be slow to take offense. In its dealings with other nations it should have scrupulous regard, not only for their rights, but also for their self-respect. With all its latent resources for war, it should be the great peace power of the world. It should never forget what a proud privilege and what an inestimable blessing it is not to need and not to have big armies or navies to support. It should seek to influence mankind, not by heavy artillery, but by good example and wise counsel. It should see its highest glory, not in battles won, but in wars prevented. It should be so invariably just and fair, so trustworthy, so good tempered, so conciliatory, that other nations would instinctively turn to it as their mutual friend and the natural adjuster of their differences, thus making it the greatest preserver of the world's peace. This is not a mere idealistic fancy. It is the natural position of this great republic among the nations of the earth. It is its noblest vocation, and it will be a glorious day for the United States when the good sense and the self-respect of the American people see in this their "manifest destiny." It all rests upon peace. Is not this peace with honor? There has, of late, been much loose speech about "Americanism." Is not this good Americanism? It is surely today the Americanism of those who love their country most. And I fervently hope that it will be and ever remain the Americanism of our children and our children's children.
