“The courage of the authoritarian character is essentially a courage to suffer what fate or its personal representative or “leader” may have destined him for.

Not to change fate, but to submit to it, is the heroism of the authoritarian character.” CourageVirtueFateSubmissionAuthoritarianism1941Suffering In SilenceMechanisms Of EscapeAuthoritarian Character Book:Escape from Freedom Source: Escape from Freedom
