II:
RACE
All occurrences
in world history are merely an expression of the racial instinct
for self-preservation, in a good or bad sense.
|
I:11 |
|
| The
inner nature of peoples always determines the way in which outward
influences will have an effect. What leads one to starvation
will train others for hard work. |
I:11 |
|
| That
which is not of good race in this world is chaff. |
I:11 |
|
| .
. . The racialist world view finds the importance of mankind in
its basic racial elements. On principle it views the state
as but a means to an end and conceives that end to be the racial
existence of man. Thus, by no means does it believe in the
equality of the races, but along with their difference it recognizes
their higher and lesser value and feels itself obligated, through
this knowledge, to promote the victory of the better and stronger,
and demand the subordination of the inferior and weaker in accordance
with the eternal Will that dominates this universe. Thus,
on principle, it embraces the basic aristocratic idea of Nature
and believes in the validity of this law down to the last individual.
. . . It believes in the necessity of an idealization of mankind,
which in turn it sees the sole premise for the existence of mankind.
But it cannot grant the right to existence even to an ethical
idea if this idea represents a danger for the racial life of the
bearers of a higher ethic; for in a bastardized and negrified world
all concepts of the humanly beautiful and sublime, as well as all
ideas of an idealized future for mankind, would be lost forever.

II:2 |
|
| All
great questions of the day are questions of the moment and represent
merely the effects of definite causes. Only one among them
all, however, possesses casual importance: the question of the racial
preservation of the nation. |
I:12 |
|
| Everything
on this Earth is capable of improvement. Every defeat can
become the father of a subsequent victory, every lost war the cause
of a later resurgence, every hardship the fertilization of human
energy; and from every oppression the forces for a new spiritual
rebirth can come—as long as the blood is kept pure.
|
I:11 |
|
| The
Germanic inhabitant of the American continent, who has remained
racially pure and unmixed, rose to become master of the same; he
will remain master as long as he does not fall victim to defilement
of the blood. |
I:11 |
|
| Sin
against the blood and against the race is the original sin in this
world and the end of a humanity which surrenders to it.
|
I:10 |
|
| No,
there is only one holiest human right, and this right is at the
same time the holiest obligation, namely: to make sure that the
blood is kept pure and, by preserving the best humanity, to create
the possibility of a nobler development of these beings. |
II:2 |
|
| A
racial state must therefore begin by raising marriage from the level
of a continuous defilement of the race, and give it the consecration
of an institution which is called upon to produce images of the
Lord and not monstrosities halfway between man and ape. |
II:2 |
|
| For
the will of God gave men their form, their being and their abilities.
He who destroys His work declares war upon the creation of
the Lord and upon the divine Will.
|
II:10 |
|
| He
who dares to lay hands upon the highest image of the Lord blasphemes
against the benevolent creator of this miracle and contributes to
the expulsion from paradise. |
