Summary

This quote by T.S. Eliot suggests that sometimes the things we perceive as negative or dormant can actually hold great significance. It implies that darkness can bring enlightenment and stillness can inspire movement and transformation. It highlights the idea that opposites can coexist and even complement each other, challenging conventional notions of what is considered desirable or unfavorable. Ultimately, it encourages embracing life's contradictions and finding beauty and meaning in unexpected places.

All nationalists have the power of not seeing resemblances between similar sets of facts. A British Tory will defend self-determination in Europe and oppose it in India with no feeling of inconsistency. Actions are held to be good or bad, not on their own merits, but according to who does them, and there is almost no kind of outrage torture, the use of hostages, forced labour, mass deportations, imprisonment without trial, forgery, assassination, the bombing of civilians which does not change its moral colour when it is committed by 'our' side . . . The nationalist not only does not disapprove of atrocities committed by his own side, but he has a remarkable capacity for not even hearing about them
