“We want statesmen and poets and musicians and philosophers and strong men and delicate men and brave men. The qualities of one would be the weaknesses of the other.'' We want, most of all, genius.
Proscription on Galtonian lines would tend to eliminate many of the great geniuses of the world who were not only ``Bohemian,'' but actually and pathologically abnormal--men like Rousseau, Dostoevsky, Chopin, Poe, Schumann, Nietzsche, Comte, Guy de Maupassant,--and how many others? But such considerations should not lead us into error of concluding that such men were geniuses merely because they were pathological specimens, and that the only way to produce a genius is to breed disease and defect. It only emphasizes the dangers of external standards of ``fit'' and ``unfit.”

“The logic of liberalism is hatred of the social centre—liberalism is essentially a novelty-seeking formula that forever replaces the centre with the margin. The king is the centre of society. But because we hate the centre, we have to replace him with something slightly more marginal—the aristocracy becomes the new centre. But because we hate the centre, we have to replace the aristocracy with something slightly more marginal—the bourgeoisie becomes the new centre. This process of hollowing out the centre continues until foreigners, minorities, and deviants are at the centre, as in wokeness. Eventually even that is too familiar, and we have to replace the human altogether —we have arrived at transhumanism. Liberalism is a fundamentally entropic force, hence its obsession with change and negative values (freedom, openness, tolerance, inclusion, diversity, etc.) It breaks down borders, whether political or conceptual.”
