""Unsere Hoffnung ruht in den jungen Leuten, die an Temperaturerhöhung leiden, weil in ihnen der grüne Eiter des Ekels frißt, in den Seelen von Grandezza, deren Träger wir gleich Kranken zwischen der Ordnung der Futtertröge einherschleichen sehen. Sie ruht im Aufstand, der sich der Herrschaft der Gemütlichkeit entgegenstellt und der der Waffen einer gegen die Welt der Formen gerichteten Zerstörung, des Sprengstoffes, bedarf, damit der Lebensraum leergefegt werde für eine neue Hierarchie."
