Unsourced
[edit]The law of progress holds that everything now must be better than what was there before. Don’t you see if you want something better, and better, and better, you lose the good. The good is no longer even being measured.
maybe a better image available for "not Nazi, not Communist"?
[edit]For the quote "The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist" ... why is there an image, there of convinced Communists? Specifically, she was implicating the sort of person who is so delusional that they see the word night and think it means day. Or see the words "not the convinced Communist" and think Communist. :)
Also I was wondering why the quotes aren't in temporal order. Is there a method to this madness? Know Einstein (talk) 01:13, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
"Death of human empathy"
[edit]There is a quote attributed to Arendt that's gone viral recently. I haven't been able to find a reliable source, so maybe it should go in the misattribution section?
The quote is, "The death of human empathy is one of the earliest and most telling signs of a culture about to fall into barbarism." 137.25.51.15 06:04, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
