"The mass-man would never have accepted authority external to himself had not his surroundings violently forced him to do so. As to-day, his surroundings do not so force him, the everlasting mass-man, true to his character, ceases to appeal to other authority and feels himself lord of his own existence. On the contrary the select man, the excellent man is urged, by interior necessity, to appeal from himself to some standard beyond himself, superior to himself, whose service he freely accepts...Contrary to what is usually thought, it is the man of excellence, and not the common man who lives in essential servitude. Life has no savour for him unless he makes it consist in service to something transcendental. Hence he does not look upon the necessity of serving as an oppression. When, by chance, such necessity is lacking, he grows restless and invents some new standard, more difficult, more exigent, with which to coerce himself. This is life lived as a discipline — the noble life."

Don't forget "Revolt Against the Modern World" and "Ride the Tiger"

Literally no one who talks about 'The Culture of Critique' read it. KMaC is a bloviating boomer, and the book is incredibly overrated, mainly existing as something for jew-apologists to allude to while defending kikes.

Have you actually read Spengler? What did you think of his analysis of history?

>>508684182
Owwald Spengler seems to have had a tough life. Such an author is worth reading.

Man and Technics is also excellent. Predicted the current refugee crisis perfectly.
