“The truth then is, that the Russian Comintern is still confessedly engaged in endeavoring to foment war in order to facilitate revolution, and that one of its chief organizers, Lozovsky, has been installed as principal adviser to Molotov...A few months ago he wrote in the French publication, L Vie Ouvriere...that his chief aim in life is the overthrow of the existing order in the great Democracies.” Has BeensStillsWarLife IsOrderDemocracyRevolutionMonthsAimJewChiefsEngagedPrincipalPublicationFacilitateAdviserOrganizerMolotov Author:Denis Fahey
“The modern world is reversing the old virtues of authority. They aimed deliberately to make men unworldly. They did not aim to found society on a full use of the earth's resources; they did not aim to use the whole nature of man; they did not intend him to think out the full expression of his desires. Democracy is a turning point upon those ideals in a pursuit, at first unconsciously, of the richest life that men can devise for themselves.” ThinkingMenWorldFirstsWholeUseEarthDesireFoundVirtueDemocracyModernExpressionAuthorityResourcesIdealsAimPursuitModern WorldTurning PointsNature Of Man Author:Walter Lippmann
“The highfalutin aims of democracy, whether real or imaginary, are always assumed to be identical with its achievements. This, of course, is sheer hallucination. Not one of those aims, not even the aim of giving every adult a vote, has been realized. It has no more made men wise and free than Christianity has made them good.” MenGivingHas BeensMadeRealCoursesChristianityDemocracyWiseAchievementAdultsVoteAimImaginarySheerIdenticalHallucinations Author:H.

“Here is tragedy - and here is America. For the curse of the country, as well of all democracies, is precisely the fact that it treats its best men as enemies. The aim of our society, if it may be said to have an aim, is to iron them out.
