One would think there's a difference between a patriot and the Muhammed Ali approach of "I am the Greatest". One is loving one's place of origin or home, the other one carries certain dangers. Foremost the danger of overestimating one's importance and thinking that everyone has to bow before you.
The latter is the nationalist approach, which gave us the beauties of the 20th century.
