"Now I know... the major cause of your illness: you have forgotten your true nature... and it is because you do not know the end and purpose of things that you think the criminal have power and happiness. And because you have forgotten the means by which the world is governed you believe these ups and downs of Fortune happen haphazardly... In your true belief you about the worlds government - that it is subject to divine reason and not the haphazards of chance - there lies our greatest hope of rekindling your health." - Lady Wisdom to the Ill Boethius.

“I see the true destiny of our people as lying not in time but in eternity. Political achievements, culture, struggles and national greatness are means, not ends in themselves. The ultimate goal is not life but resurrection.” - Corneliu Codreanu, The Prison Notes

"The causes of Nihilism:

1. The higher species is lacking, i.e., the species whose inexhaustible fruitfulness and power would uphold our belief in Man (think only of what is owed to Napoleon—almost all the higher hopes of this century).
2. The inferior species ('herd,' 'mass,' 'society') is forgetting modesty, and inflates its needs into cosmic and metaphysical values. In this way all life is vulgarized: for inasmuch as the mass of mankind rules, it tyrannizes over the exceptions, so that these lose their belief in themselves and become Nihilists.

All attempts to conceive of a new species come to nothing ('romanticism,' the artist, the philosopher; against Carlyle's attempt to lend them the highest moral values).
The result is that higher types are resisted.
The downfall and insecurity of all higher types. The struggle against genius ('popular poetry,' etc.). Sympathy with the lowly and the suffering as a standard for the elevation of the soul.
The philosopher is lacking, the interpreter of deeds, and not alone he who poetizes them."

- Friedrich Nietzsche, Will to Power

Emancipation, liberation, et al. these words are today thought of as good and moral things. To free a slave from his chains, to make a woman a self-concious actor, etc. have in the last few centuries been seen as good, even heroic conduct.

But a quick look at our own history proves this to be far from universal, in fact it appears to be a very recent notion. It essentially corresponds to self-imposed exile from ones city in order to live among the lawless criminals in the wilderness. The liberal notion seeks to make us all criminals calling ourselves "noble" yet living savages and degenerates.

In the Germanic societies, in their early recorded history, the ideal was the divine order of the clan/village/fort, out from which any man who violated the law of this order could be cast through a process known as being declared "one without peace". Peace in this sense should be seen as inseparable from rulership and dominion, a realm without a ruler will fall into civil war, disunity and chaos.

This concept of Peacelessness entailed that the man in question lost all rights and privileges, was cast out into the wilderness and any man who found him was expected to kill him, or at least to never aid him, never give him food nor house him.

Equivalent notions exist in the Christian notion of excommunication and the old Greek practice of ostracization.

This all seems to imply a deeply felt sense of the privilege and honour of service, of belonging to a law and an order of divine sanction.

This is the basis for all Imperialism.

"As is known, Homer has a proper hierarchy of bravery. Ulysses holds back his pain because he knows his wound is not mortal; Agamemnon and Menelaus may shudder when they are wounded; finally, the wounded Diomedes “stood, called upon Sthenelus to draw the arrow from his wound, and as the blood flowed his feelings did not pour out in tears and cries but in fiery prayers directed at the enemy.” That is how inhuman Homer’s heroes are, and the greater the hero, the greater the inhumanity: his Achilles is even invulnerable to physical harm."
