Feminism liberated women from the natural dignity of their sex and turned them into inferior men.

- Francis Parker Yockey

He who joyfully marches to music rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.

- Albert Einstein

Military glory – that attractive rainbow, that rises in showers of blood – that serpent's eye, that charms to destroy.

- President Abraham Lincoln

You cannot separate peace and freedom. Because no one can be at peace unless he has freedom.

- Malcolm X

Putting aside all the fancy words and academic doubletalk, the basic reason for having a military is to do two jobs --to kill people and to destroy.

- General Thomas S. Power

The right field for the intuitive or indefinable type of truth is in the arts. It will best teach its own type of truth, not by introducing unreason into the operations of reason, or turning the multiplication table upside down, or denying that truth is the opposite of falsehood- but by minding its own business and producing its own masterpieces out of its own workshop. Truth that really cannot be expressed in logic can be expressed in line and color and rhythm and imagery and melody. And those intangible truths express themselves there without mucking up philosophy or morality or the sane process of thinking.

- G.K. Chesterton

The first stage of the economy’s domination of social life brought about an evident degradation of being into having — human fulfillment was no longer equated with what one was, but with what one possessed. The present stage, in which social life has become completely dominated by the accumulated productions of the economy, is bringing about a general shift from having to appearing — all “having” must now derive its immediate prestige and its ultimate purpose from appearances. At the same time all individual reality has become social, in the sense that it is shaped by social forces and is directly dependent on them. Individual reality is allowed to appear only if it is not actually real.

- Guy Debord, The Society of the Spectacle

After centuries of "enslavement", the woman wanted to become free and exist for herself. Feminism, however, was unable to give women any other personality than that which they can give to the mere imitation of men. Thus her claims are nothing but a mask for a thorough mistrust of the new woman towards herself: i.e. for her inability to be and to be considered what she is; as a woman and not as a man. Feminism is based on the premise that the woman as such has no value, that she can only be valid insofar as she becomes as much a man as possible and claims the same prerogatives of the man. Feminism is therefore a symptom of degeneration in the strictest sense of the word.

- Julius Evola

When I was growing up, it was 'Communists'. Now it's 'Terrorists'. So, you always have to have somebody to fight and be afraid of, so the war machine can build more bombs, guns, and bullets.

- Cindy Sheehan

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.

- Albert Einstein
