Thomas Sowell
“It’s amazing how much panic one honest man can spread among a multitude of hypocrites. ”
Thomas Sowell

J.R.R. Tolkien
“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

David Hume
“...no testimony is sufficient to establish a miracle, unless the testimony be of such a kind, that its falsehood would be more miraculous, than the fact, which it endeavors to establish.”
David Hume, An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding/An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals

Julius Evola
“America ... has created a 'civilization' that represents an exact contradiction of the ancient European tradition. It has introduced the religion of praxis and productivity; it has put the quest for profit, great industrial production, and mechanical, visible, and quantitative achievements over any other interest. It has generated a soulless greatness of a purely technological and collective nature, lacking any background of transcendence, inner light, and true spirituality. America has [built a society where] man becomes a mere instrument of production and material productivity within a conformist social conglomerate”
Julius Evola

Marcus Aurelius
“We must make haste then, not only because we are daily nearer to death, but also because the conception of things and the understanding of them cease first.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
