IX:
STRUGGLE
Those who
want to live, let them fight; and those who do not want to fight
in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.
|
I:11 |
|
| This
world is not for cowardly peoples. |
I:3 |
|
| It
is our duty to inform all weaklings that this is simply a question
of to be or not to be. |
I:2 |
|
| .
. . Victory lies eternally and exclusively in attack. |
II:2
|
|
| .
. . Against those who confront us with force, we will defend ourselves
with force. |
I:12 |
|
| .
. . Terror can only be broken by terror . . . |
II:7 |
|
| .
. . Obstacles do not exist to be surrendered to, but rather to be
broken. |
I:2 |
|
| .
. . He who first demands of Fate a guarantee of success, automatically
renounces all idea of a heroic deed. |
II:2 |
|
| But
precisely in this seeming hopelessness of our mighty struggle lies
the greatness of our task, as well as the possibility of our success.
The battle-cry which either scares away the small spirits
from the very start, or soon makes them despair, will be the signal
for the rallying of real fighting natures… Only the best
fighters will step forward. And in
this selection lies the guarantee of success. |
II:2 |
|
| World
history is made by minorities when this minority of number embodies
a majority of will and determination. |
II:2 |
|
| No
one can doubt that this world will one day be exposed to the severest
struggles for the existence of mankind. In the end, only the urge
for self-preservation will triumph. Beneath it so-called humanity—that
expression of a mixture of stupidity, cowardice and know-it-all
conceit—will melt like snow in the March sun. Mankind has grown
great in eternal struggle, and only in eternal peace will it perish. |
I:4 |
|
| Almighty
God, bless our arms when the time comes; be just as Thou hast always
been; judge now whether we be deserving of freedom; Lord, bless
our battle! |
II:13 |
