Finance will attack, it will silently undermine all intellectual movements that could cause superior values to prevail over mercantile values. It will corrode Catholicism through modernism, which is essentially a transaction between Christian faith and the modern world; philosophy through pragmatism, which is a philosophical modernism; socialism and nationalism through parliamentarianism; ultimately everywhere where it smells a warlike spirit of intransigence capable of raising up and sustaining something absolute and supernatural against it within this universal naturalist relativism of the modern world so favorable to its reign, it immediately tries to tame it, encircle it, “pacify” it.

"Revolutionary is the new humanity which appears as typus; revolutionary is the steady growth of means which none of the traditional social and national orders can assimilate without contradictions. These means are changing entirely and reveal their hidden meaning the moment they are subjected to a real, incontestable dominion. From this moment, revolutionary become legitimate." - Ernst Junger, The Worker, pg. 124

"Statement to the Court Upon Being Convicted of Violating the Sedition Act" (18 September 1918)
