And opinion ever changing,
Task-work be, though ill begun,
Dealt with by experience better;

We are convinced that socialism in the right sense will only be possible in nations and races that are Aryan, and there in the first place we hope for our own people and are convinced that socialism is inseparable from nationalism.”
