Ernst Jünger
“The populace consists of individuals and free men, while the state is made up of numbers. When the state dominates, killing becomes abstract. Servitude began with the shepherds; in the river valleys it attained perfection with canals and dikes. Its model was the slavery in mines and mills. Since then, the ruses for concealing chains have been refined.”
Ernst Jünger, Eumeswil

Ernst Jünger
“But we have never stopped it [war] and never shall, because war is not the law of one age or civilization, but of eternal nature itself, out of which every civilization proceedes, and into which it must sink again if it is not hard enough to withstand its iron ordeal.”
Ernst Jünger, Copse 125: A Chronicle from the Trench Warfare of 1918

Ernst Jünger
“Toleration of all sides, of which we were so proud, must be seen for what it is – a negative quality. He who as no real belief in anything can certainly be tolerant and to spare; but only intolerance has any force behind it.”
Ernst Jünger, Copse 125: A Chronicle from the Trench Warfare of 1918

Ernst Jünger
“As long as we have a youth that stands for all that is strong and manly our future is assured.”
Ernst Jünger, Copse 125: A Chronicle from the Trench Warfare of 1918

Ernst Jünger
“The hardiest sons of the war, the men who lead the storm-troop, and manipulate the tank, the aeroplane, and the submarine, are preeminent in technical accomplishment; and it is these picked examples of dare-devil courage that represent the modern state i battle. These men of first-rate qualities with real blood in their veins, courageous, intelligent, accustomed to serve the machine, and yet its superior at the same time, are the men, too, who show up best in the trench and among the shell-holes.”
Ernst Jünger, Copse 125: A Chronicle from the Trench Warfare of 1918
