О национальных интересах
Существуют глупые вопросы, на которые тем не менее полезно отвечать
- ровно один раз.
Такие вопросы по-английски называются фак.
Итак, фак: Есть этнический армянин №1 - профессор МГУ, гражданин России; есть этнический армянин №2 - торговец на рынке.
Вы утверждаете, что существенные интересы этих двух совпадают, и в то же время ( Read more... )

«[Men] has diverged into distinct races, or as they
may be more fitly called, sub-species. Some of these, such as the Negro and
the European, are so distinct that, if specimens had been brought to a
naturalist without any further information, they would undoubtedly have been
considered as good and true species. The American aborigines, Negroes and
Europeans are as different from each other in mind as any three races that can
be named.»
«Man [...] has given rise to many races, some of which
differ so much from each other, that they have often been ranked by
naturalists as distinct species.»
«The variability or diversity of the mental faculties
in men of the same race, not to mention the greater differences between the
men of distinct races, is so notorious that not a word need here be said.»
«Nor is the difference slight in moral disposition
between a barbarian, such as the man described by the old navigator Byron, who
dashed his child on the rocks for dropping a basket of sea urchins, and a
Howard or Clarkson; and in intellect, between a savage who uses hardly any
abstract terms, and a Newton or Shakspeare. Differences of this kind between
the highest men of the highest races and the lowest savages, are connected by
the finest graduations.»
«We must not judge of the tastes of distinct species by
a uniform standard... Even with man, we should remember what discordant
noises, the beating of tom-toms and the shrill notes of reeds, please the ears
of savages.»
«If the country were open on its borders, new forms
would certainly immigrate, and this would also seriously disturb the relations
of some of the former inhabitants. Let it be remembered how powerful the
influence of a single introduced tree or mammal has been shown to be.»
«He who believes in the struggle for existence and in
the principle of natural selection, will acknowledge that every organic being
is constantly endeavouring to increase in numbers; and thus if any one being
vary ever so little, either in habits or structure, and thus gain an advantage
over some other inhabitant of the country, it will seize on the place of that
inhabitant, however different it may be from its own place.»
«A tribe including many members who, from possessing in
a high degree the spirit of patriotism, fidelity, obedience, courage, and
sympathy, were always ready to aid one another, and to sacrifice themselves
for the common good, would be victorious over most other tribes; and this
would be natural selection.»
