Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“Violence is not necessary to destroy a civilization. Each civilization dies from
indifference toward the unique values which created it.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila, Escolios a Un Texto Implicito: Obra Completa

Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“In an age in which the media broadcast countless pieces of foolishness, the educated man is defined not by what he knows, but by what he doesn't know.”
Nicolas Gomez Davila

Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“All life "colonizes." Everything that lives aspires to live infinitely. Nothing spontaneously limits itself. No harmony is the result of mutual respect or reciprocal restraint; harmony stems from hostile interventions and the temporary balance of forces.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila

Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“The reactionary is that fool who possesses the vanity to judge history, and the immorality to come to terms with it.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila

J.R.R. Tolkien
“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
