Excerpt from The German Tragedy and Its Meaning for Canada
Germany, which once was the home of Leibnitz, Lessing, Goethe and Kant, and which boasted in her idealism and intellectual freedom, has become an outlaw waging her campaign of "frightfulness" like one demented. It is a pitiful fact that her intellectual leaders do not seem to realise her abandoned state. Possibly they are ignorant of the situation. This is the most charitable view to take of men who still pretend to pursue the ideal, and dream of a spiritual world dominion. They imagine that Germany can penetrate into the inner realm of life, whereas she is a slave to organisation, to things material and to superficial appearances. Her real God is Force.
