“Let us admit to ourselves without trying to be considerate, how every higher culture on earth has begun. Human beings whose nature was
still natural, barbarians in every terrible sense, men of prey who were still in possession of unbroken strength of will and lust for power,
hurled themselves upon weaker, more civilized, more peaceful races. In the beginning the noble caste was always the barbarian caste: their
predominance lied in not only physical strength, but also in strength of soul. They were more whole human beings, which means, at every level, more whole beasts.”
