Každý občan má svůj díl odpovědnosti za to, co stát činí, a každý je společně se státem postižen tím, co stát potkalo. Zločinecký stát jde k tíži celému národu. Jedná-li se tedy s vůdci státu jako se zločinci, i když jimi jsou, má občan pocit, že se tak jedná i s ním. S nimi je odsuzován i národ. Proto národ pociťuje to, co vůdcové státu nyní prožívají, jako vlastní urážku a ztrátu důstojnosti.

Additional quotes by Karl Jaspers

how I longed to find an authority above the nations, a law above all states, capable of giving legal aid to an individual abused and rendered without rights by his state.

Can truth be found? Is it possible to live with truth? All life-force stems from blindness. It grows from imagined knowledge, in myth taken for faith, and in the substitute myths; in unquestioning acceptance, and in mind-narrowing untruths. Within the human predicament the quest for truth presents an impossible task.

For one wishing to philosophize, it is particular, indeed of crucial importance to ascertain the difference between the object cognition that is achieved in the sciences and the transcending thought that characterizes philosophy......which transcend[s] the limits of the knowable and of the world as a whole, so that through these limits we become aware of the phenomenality of empirical existence and hence of the Comprehensive nature of being, thus entering into the area of faith.
