#KarlJaspers, #Jaspers The Origin and Goal of History, 1948.

"The political unity of the earth can only be a matter of time. The path seems to lead from national States, via the great continental areas of government, to world empire or world order. It will eventually be enforced by the will to power and dominion which, by all historical analogies, is always there...and then, out of the will to peace, seeks a life free from anxiety in an order of the world" (193).

"The notions of God produced by man are not God Himself. These mental images are symbols, are historical, are always inadequate" (219).

#KarlJaspers, #Jaspers The Origin and Goal of History

"What men think and expect, at once becomes an origin of the future, which is in their hands. The only hope is for horror to become conscious. Nothing but the most lucid consciousness can help us. Dread of such a future may perhaps prevent it. The terrible forgetting must not be allowed to take place" 199.

"History is a continual thrusting forwarding on the part of single individuals. Whoever hears and understands them joins them in the forward movement... the tremendous forces of the masses, with their attributes of mediocrity, suffocate whatever is not in line with them. Anything in their midst which does not win the right to exist through its significance as a realization of that which is inherent in the masses...must perish" (48).
