I also suspect that loyalty is sometimes an excuse for intellectual indolence. It is so easy to select some group or institution which offers clear championship of at least some element of what we conceive to be our self-interest, and then to draw in its support blank checks upon our instinct for loyalty.

Loyalty is still the same, whether it win or lose the game; true as a dial to the sun, although it be not shined upon.

While loyal people often do sacrifice various interests, their time, and sometimes even their lives to serve some person, group, or cause, loyalty is not strictly altruistic. The loyal person's self-interest is tied up with that of the object of loyalty.

Loyalty is among a broad set of moral values that people embrace. Enshrined in national oaths of allegiance, military mottos, and business cultures, loyalty is often cast as a virtue to aspire to and as being closely related to other moral values such as honesty and benevolence. Loyalty promotes good citizenship behavior, prompting people to voice their concerns and help others in their community.
