Take a book, the poorest one written, but read it with the passion that it is the only book you will read-ultimately you will read everything out of it, that is, as much as there was in yourself, and you could never get more out of reading, even if you read the best of books.

Soren Kierkegaard, Stages on Life's Way (1845)

Das ist der Titel für alle naiven Optimisten. Die Einbindung in Verantwortung hat historisch noch nie funktioniert. Weder haben sich die Nazis oder irgendeine rechtspopulistische Partei - einmal an der Macht - je de-radikalisiert oder entzaubert. Nur gute Politik (Verbesserung der Lebensverhältnisse breiter Massen) entzieht den Rechtsradikalen den Nährboden.

TIL that the Nazis tried to destroy 65 tons of NSDAP membership cards, but the owner of the paper mill, Hanns Huber, hid all 12 million cards beneath paper waste and tried to hand them over to the Americans, who did not realize until October 1945 what Huber had been trying to give them [source, comments]
