Quote by Ludwig von Mises

If some peoples pretend that history or geography gives them the right to subjugate other races, nations, or peoples, there can be no peace.

If some peoples pretend that history or geography gives them

Summary

This quote highlights that using history or geography as justifications for oppressing or dominating other groups leads to conflict and disrupts peace. It emphasizes that such claims to superiority and entitlement based on historical or geographical factors are invalid and only perpetuate divisions among races, nations, and peoples. True peace can only be achieved when equality, respect, and understanding are embraced, rejecting any attempts to exploit the past or geographical advantages to subjugate others.

Philosophy is perfectly right in saying that life must be understood backward. But then one forgets the other clause - that it must be lived forward. The more one thinks through this clause, the more one concludes that life in temporality never becomes properly understandable, simply because never at any time does one get perfect repose to take the stance - backward.

'Every man has his price. This is not true. But for every man there exists a bait which he cannot resist swallowing. To win over certain people to something, it is only necessary to give it a gloss of love of humanity, nobility, gentleness, self-sacrifice - and there is nothing you cannot get them to swallow. To their souls, these are the icing, the tidbit; other kinds of souls have others.
