Thomas Sowell
“When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination.”
Thomas Sowell

Julius Evola
“When a cycle of civilisation is reaching its end, it is difficult to achieve anything by resisting it and by directly opposing the forces in motion. The current is too strong; one would be overwhelmed. The essential thing is to not let oneself be impressed by the omnipotence and apparent triumph of the forces of the epoch. These forces, devoid of connection with any higher principle, are in fact, on a short chain. One should not become fixated on the present, and on things at hand, but keep in view the conditions that may come about in the future. Thus the principle to follow could be that of letting the forces and processes of this epoch take their own course, while keeping oneself firm and ready to intervene when "the tiger, which cannot leap of the person riding it, is tired of running".”
Julius Evola, Ride the Tiger: A Survival Manual for the Aristocrats of the Soul

“Everyone is conservative about what he knows best.”

“Liberalism is moral syphilis. And I'm stepping over it.”
