Additional quotes by Karl Jaspers
Je to rozdíl mezi politickou svobodou a politickou diktaturou, chápaný od doby Herodotovy jako rozdíl mezi Západem a Orientem (mezi řeckou svobodou a perskou despocií). Ale není už zpravidla na jednotlivcích, aby rozhodovali, jaké poměry mají vládnout. Jednotlivec se do nich rodí, štastně nebo neštastně; musí přejímat, co je zde a co je skutečné. Žádný jednotlivec a žádná skupina nemohou rázem - a také ne jen v jediné generaci – změnit tento předpoklad, bez něhož není život nás všech myslitelný.
