“A dog is a pitiful thing, depending wholly on companionship, and utterly lost except in packs or by the side of his master. Leave him alone and he does not know what to do except bark and howl and trot about till sheer exhaustion forces him to sleep. A cat, however, is never without the potentialities of contentment. Like a superior man, he knows how to be alone and happy. Once he looks about and finds no one to amuse him, he settles down to the task of amusing himself; and no one really knows cats without having occasionally peeked stealthily at some lively and well-balanced kitten which believes itself to be alone.”
— H.P. Lovecraft

“Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”

— The road not taken, Robert Frost

The common man, victim of circumstance, is the one you see everywhere. He is breathing, yet it could hardly be said he's alive.

He walks about resigned, defeated, in denial, or simply aloof, domesticated, declawed, castrated and content in the outstanding mediocrity he has settled for.

The higher man is creator of his destiny. He defies the odds, puts himself to the test and pursues acts of greatness for his own personal fulfillment and to distinguish himself in the eyes of the Gods. He sets the bar high for the coming generations, thus providing them with challenges, opportunity for glory and the advancement of the race.

Which are you?

“There's a race of men that don't fit in,
    A race that can't stay still;
So they break the hearts of kith and kin,
    And they roam the world at will.
They range the field and they rove the flood,
    And they climb the mountain's crest;
Theirs is the curse of the gypsy blood,
    And they don't know how to rest.
If they just went straight they might go far;
    They are strong and brave and true;
But they're always tired of the things that are,
    And they want the strange and new.
They say: "Could I find my proper groove,
    What a deep mark I would make!"
So they chop and change, and each fresh move
    Is only a fresh mistake.
And each forgets, as he strips and runs
    With a brilliant, fitful pace,
It's the steady, quiet, plodding ones
    Who win in the lifelong race.
And each forgets that his youth has fled,
    Forgets that his prime is past,
Till he stands one day, with a hope that's dead,
    In the glare of the truth at last.
He has failed, he has failed; he has missed his chance;
    He has just done things by half.
Life's been a jolly good joke on him,
    And now is the time to laugh.
Ha, ha! He is one of the Legion Lost;
    He was never meant to win;
He's a rolling stone, and it's bred in the bone;
    He's a man who won't fit in.”

“Progress is pure illusion. It affects only the sphere of matter, while the spirit is rigorously degraded. What our contemporaries pass off as achievements are in fact shameful vices: the rejection of religion as prejudice, immorality as the overcoming of complexes, contempt for the past as swaggering ignorance, the ephemerality of fashion as the absolutization of vanity. Stupidity is raised to the norm, the development of the media is accompanied by the fact that the information is so small that there is no need to transmit it. Reality slips through our fingers, becomes illusory. Aristocratic ideals are replaced by vile tastes of the crowds, the market and entertainment, social conformity and intellectual anarchy, arrogant stupidity and arrogant insignificance. According to Guénon, the modern world is worthy only of contempt and disgust. And not in some particular aspect, but in its entirety.”

“The art of not reading is a very important one. It consists in not taking an interest in whatever may be engaging the attention of the general public at any particular time.

A precondition for reading good books is not reading bad ones: for life is short.”

"The worst demoralization comes from our own ranks. People who complain that the world is degenerate, or think that we can be replaced.

If you have any faith in the divine you know that our blood is immortal, and that this point in time is meant for a very special kind of beauty.

If you have ever been "black pilled" then you have deeply identified with the wrong things. What is crumbling now is a sandcastle. What is to be born is our primordial freedom."

The left has played its role of degenerating the world to the extent where people are now desperate for any sort common sense... And now the right is taking its turn on stage playing the role of the sane. The role it was made to play in this kosher play they've put on for us—carried out in the theatre of biblical madness. The spectators have never seen such entertainment, they are hypnotized, mesmerized. But like all plays there is a climax and an end. The play must end... And the actors must bow down and dissappear behind the curtains leaving the shaken spectators in the dark and on their way back home...

Most people are unfortunately lost… Even those who seem to be of solid mind and body can crack easily under the right conditions… Exhaustion and desperation can weaken the spirit of even the strongest of men. The desire for change that never comes, for something to hang onto when all seems out of reach, for a slight beam of victory when you’ve been fighting for so long can be hard on the soul… Most, under these circumstances, will believe in anything that makes them feel that their exhaustion was worth it, that their fighting was not in vain and that they can now step back and take a well deserved break… These are the perfect mental conditions for the parasites to infiltrate their minds… To make them see what’s not there. To make them believe that theatre is real life.

“O thou too proud European of the nineteenth century, art thou not mad? Thy knowledge does not complete Nature, it only kills thine own nature! Measure the height of what thou knowest by the depths of thy power to do. Thou climbest the sunbeams of knowledge up toward heaven—but also down to Chaos. Thy manner of going is fatal to thee; the ground slips from under thy feet into the unknown; thy life has no other stay, but only spiders' webs that every new stroke of thy knowledge tears asunder.”

“In such an atmosphere, it took something for a law to stand out as particularly repressive. Yet one law did. Out of all the froth and fury that was being issued from the government at the time, one law would become infamous for the next 1,500 years. Read this law and, in comparison to some of Justinian's other edicts, it sounds almost underwhelming. Filed under the usual dull bureaucratic subheading, it is now known as "Law .1.11.10.2." "Moreover," it reads, "we forbid the teaching of any doctrine by those who labour under the insanity of paganism" so that they might not "corrupt the souls of their disciples" […] It was this law that led the English scholar Edward Gibbon to declare that the entirety of the barbarian invasions had been less damaging to Athenian philosophy than Christianity was. This law's consequences were described more simply by later historians. It was from this moment, they said, that a Dark Age began to descend upon Europe.”

”We do not blame nature when she sends a thunder storm and makes us wet: why then do we term the man who inflicts injury immoral? Because in the latter case we assume a voluntary, ruling, free will, and in the former necessity. But this distinction is a delusion. Moreover, even the intentional infliction of injury is not, in all circumstances termed immoral. Thus, we kill a fly intentionally without thinking very much about it, simply because its buzzing about is disagreeable; and we punish a criminal and inflict pain upon him in order to protect ourselves and society. In the first case it is the individual who, for the sake of preserving himself or in order to spare himself pain, does injury with design: in the second case, it is the state. All ethic deems intentional infliction of injury justified by necessity; that is when it is a matter of self preservation. But these two points of view are sufficient to explain all bad acts done by man to men. It is desired to obtain pleasure or avoid pain. In any sense, it is a question, always, of self preservation.”
— Friedrich Nietzsche

“The feeling of the tree that clings to its roots, the happiness of knowing one's growth to be not merely arbitrary and fortuitous but the inheritance, the fruit and blossom, of a past that does not merely justify but crowns the present — this is what we nowadays prefer to call the real historical sense.”
— Nietzsche

“Secondly, history is necessary to the man of conservative and reverent nature who looks back to the origins of his existence with love and trust; through it he gives thanks for life. He is careful to preserve what survives from ancient days, and will reproduce the conditions of his own upbringing for those who come after him; thus he does life a service.”

“Each of the three kinds of history will flourish only in one ground and climate: otherwise it grows to a noxious weed. If the man who will produce something great has need of the past, he makes himself its master by means of "monumental history"; the man who can rest content with the traditional and venerable uses the past as an "antiquarian historian"; and only he whose heart is oppressed by an instant need and who will cast the burden off at any price feels the want of "critical history," the history that judges and condemns. There is much harm wrought by wrong and thoughtless planting: the critic who need not be one, the antiquarian without reverence, he who knows the great but cannot attain it, are plants that have grown to weeds—they are torn from their native soil and therefore degenerate.”
