More quotes by Savitri Devi

Europe is organized, marvellously organized; but India is cultivated.

Europe is only powerful; India is beautiful.

In the Third Reich, even schoolchildren knew from their textbooks that this [= the Aryan] race had spread from the north to the south and east, and not the other way around.

I asked Savitri ... how she would have received her mother. Without batting an eyelid, she said: 'I would have shot her.'

I worship impersonal Nature, which is neither "good" or "bad", and who knows neither love nor hatred. I worship Life; the Sun, Sustainer of life. I believe in the Law of everlasting struggle, which is the law of life, and in the duty of the best specimens of our race — the natural élite of mankind — to rule the earth, and evolve out of themselves a caste of supermen, a people 'like unto the Gods'.
