Propaganda replaces moral philosophy.

Power positions do not yield to arguments, however rationally and morally valid, but only to superior power.

The statesman must think in terms of the national interest, conceived as power among other powers. The popular mind, unaware of the fine distinctions of the statesman's thinking, reasons more often than not in the simple moralistic and legalistic terms of absolute good and absolute evil.

Man is born to seek power, yet his actual condition makes him a slave to the power of others.

Man will not live without answers to his questions.

Propaganda replaces moral philosophy.
