Person or Principle

Yesterday as I prepared the schedule for today, the Republic Day, I inserted a quote of George William Curtis about patriotism. Here's the quote:
A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, rivers, and woods, but it is a principle and patriotism is loyalty to that principle.
However, since then I am wondering which is right: What is my commitment to? A principle or a person? Both have their drawbacks as well as advantages for the same reasons. And so I'm wondering as to what or on whom should I lay the foundation of my life?
