“What makes the French Revolution unique in history is that it is radically bad, where no good element comforts the beholder. It is the highest stage of corruption that is perceived, it is pure impurity.”

- Joseph de Maistre

"The spirit of technicity, which has led to the mass belief in an anti-religious activism, is still spirit; perhaps an evil and demonic spirit, but not one which can be dismissed as mechanistic and attributed to technology. It is perhaps something gruesome, but not itself technical and mechanical. It is the belief in an activistic metaphysics—the belief in unlimited power and the domination of man over nature, even over human nature; the belief in the unlimited “receding of natural boundaries,” in the unlimited possibilities for change and prosperity. Such a belief can be called fantastic and satanic, but not simply dead, spiritless, or mechanized soullessness.
The fear of cultural and social nothingness sprang more from an anxiety-ridden panic over the threatened status quo than from a cool-headed knowledge of the peculiarity of intellectual processes and their dynamics. All new and great impulses, every revolution and reformation, every new elite originates from asceticism and voluntary or involuntary poverty (poverty meaning above all the renunciation of the security of the status quo)."
~ Carl Schmitt, The Age of Neutralizations and Depoliticizations
