I know now that the only real crime of Francis Parker Yockey was to write a book, and for this he had to die.

The purpose of history, as I see it, is to uncover the forces which move the pawns on the chess board of the world. This and only this is real history, and anything else, in the final analysis, is of no intrinsic value.

How the press, for example, loves to brag to its victims—its readers—about its freedom. Yes, the press may be free to lie and distort and suppress and deceive and malign, but is it free to tell the truth?
