No weird cultural aberration produced Nazism. No intellectual lunatic fringe miraculously overwhelmed a civilized country. It is modern philosophy-not some peripheral aspect of it, but the most central of its mainstreams-which turned the Germans into a nation of killers. The land of poets and philosophers was brought down by its poets and philosophers.
( Leonard Peikoff )
