      Just be vigilant - don't give up thinking deeply

      I still remember that this movie was shown to us by sociology when we were in college. The wind of thinking brings us not knowledge, but the ability to distinguish right from wrong, which is very impressive. Now two years after graduation, watching it again, I am very impressed. The "evil of...

      A model of philosopher's biographical film

      I was supposed to write a paper in the morning, but when I turned on the computer, it turned into a movie, and I wanted to write something after watching the movie. Fortunately, the film was well shot and it was worth the time.
      Why do I say this movie is good? This is not to say that it used any...

      Very good, written almost entirely based on the biography and the trial at the time, with plenty of quotes from the original book, and the long speech at the end is no worse than the one in JFK.

    Hannah Arendt quotes

    • Hannah Arendt: Western tradition mistakenly assumes that the greatest evils of mankind arise from selfishness. But in our century, evil has proven to be more radical than was previously thought. And we now know that the truest evil, the radical evil, has nothing to do with selfishness or any such understandable, sinful motives. Instead, it is based on the following phenomenon: making human beings superfluous as human beings. The entire concentration camp system was designed to convince the prisoners they were unnecessary before they were murdered. In the concentration camps men were taught that punishment was not connected to a crime, that exploitation wouldn't profit anyone, and that work produced no results. The camp is a place where every activity and human impulse is senseless. Where, in other words, senselessness is daily produced anew. So to summarize: If it is true that in the final stage of totalitarianism, an absolute evil emerges, absolute as it no longer relates to human motives, then it is equally true that without it, without totalitarianism, we would never have known the truly radical nature of evil.

    • Hannah Arendt: How can you leave me like that? No hug, no kiss?

      Heinrich Blücher: Never disturb a great philosopher when they're thinking.

      Hannah Arendt: But they can't think without kisses.
