“Autumn is the American season. In Europe the leaves turn yellow or brown, and fall. Here they take fire on the trees and hang there flaming. We think this frost-fire is a portent somehow: a promise that the continent has given us.

“We were terribly excited, and I think we took it on our shoulders that we were creating the 21st century in 1971. That was the idea.

“US opposition to Russia and China has entailed sanctions against Russia, and Russia in turn has made counter-sanctions against Europe. So Europe is essentially sacrificing its opportunities for trade and investment in order to remain part of NATO.

“Marx's own illusion was to think that the working class movement, which he devoted his life to creating and strengthening, would both be socially and politically successful in the industrial nations of Western Europe, and that it would develop an entirely new way of human social life that would retain and even enhance the productive benefits of capitalism while overcoming the inhumanity and exploitation of capitalist social relations.

“Every collectivist revolution rides in on a Trojan horse of "emergency". It was the tactic of Lenin, Hitler, and Mussolini. In the collectivist sweep over a dozen minor countries of Europe, it was the cry of men striving to get on horseback. And "emergency" became the justification of the subsequent steps. This technique of creating emergency is the greatest achievement that demagoguery attains.” MenCountryPoliticsStepsCryRevolutionAchievementCreatingEuropeHorseStriveTechniqueTyrannyTyrantsDozenJustificationMinorsEmergenciesTacticsGreatest AchievementDemagogueryHorsebackTrojansTrojan Horse Book:Memoirs: The great depression, 1929-1941 Source: Memoirs: The great depression, 1929-1941
