"The soul of Europe cannot be occupied, ruled, or dominated by Culture-aliens. Only a materialist could think that the possession of the tangible appurtenances of power guarantees the eternal continuance of power. If that had been so, a few castes and States would have always ruled the world, from its beginning.

Even in our short lives we have seen empires come and go, and the temporary power-agglomerations of Moscow and Washington will go the same way."
