Humanity Will Live As Long As There

Chekhov Said: Let's Put God - And All These Grand Progressive Ideas - To One Side. Let's Begin With Man; Let's Be Kind And Attentive To The Individual Man - Whether He's A Bishop, A Peasant, An Industrial Magnate, A Convict In The Sakhalin Islands, Or A Waiter In A Restaurant. Let's Begin With Respect, Compassion, And Love For The Individual - Or We'll Never Get Anywhere.

Human Groupings Have One Main Purpose: To Assert Everyone’s Right To Be Different, To Be Special, To Think, Feel And Live In His Or Her Own Way. People Join Together In Order To Win Or Defend This Right. But This Is Where A Terrible, Fateful Error Is Born: The Belief That These Groupings In The Name Of A Race, A God, A Party Or A State Are The Very Purpose Of Life And Not Simply A Means To An End. No! The Only True And Lasting Meaning Of The Struggle For Life Lies In The Individual, In His Modest Peculiarities And In His Right To These Peculiarities.

There Are People Whose Souls Have Just Withered, People Who Are Willing To Go Along With Anything Evil - Anything So As Not To Be Suspected Of Disagreeing With Whoever Is In Power.

Humanity Will Live As Long As There Are Humans.

Man And Fascism Cannot Co-exist. If Fascism Conquers, Man Will Cease To Exist And There Will Remain Only Man-like Creatures That Have Undergone An Internal Transformation. But If Man, Man Who Is Endowed With Reason And Kindness, Should Conquer, Then Fascism Must Perish, And Those Who Have Submitted To It Will Once Again Become People.
