Our national policies will not be revoked or modified, even for scientists. If the dismissal of Jewish scientists means the annihilation of contemporary German science, then we shall do without science for a few years.
Adolf Hitler
Image
Today I will once more be a prophet. If the international Jewish financiers, inside and outside Europe, succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, then the result will not be the Bolshevisation of the earth, and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!
Adolf Hitler
Image
There is an air of last things, a brooding sense of impending annihilation, about so much deconstructive activity, in so many of its guises it is not merely postmodernist but preapocalyptic.
David Lehman
Image
Writing a novel is an act of self-annihilation as much as self-discovery. You can kill whole appetites and flood whole depths while plumbing them, but if you are serious about it you also get to put something into the world that wasn't quite there before.
Andrew O'Hagan
Image
The destination of the deportation is annihilation.
Talaat Pasha
Image

Anton Chekhov

Nature abhors annihilation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Image
Animals learn death first at the moment of death...man approaches death with the knowledge it is closer every hour, and this creates a feeling of uncertainty over his life, even for him who forgets in the business of life that annihilation is awaiting him. It is for this reason chiefly that we have philosophy and religion.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Image
There can be no rebirth without a dark night of the soul, a total annihilation of all that you believed in and thought that you were.
Vilayat Inayat Khan
Image
Annihilation has no terrors for me, because I have already tried it before I was born --a hundred million years --and I have suffered more in an hour, in this life, than I remember to have suffered in the whole hundred million years put together.
Mark Twain
Image
The only way into truth is through one's own annihilation through dwelling a long time in a state of extreme and total humiliation.
Simone Weil
Image
You give up the world line by line. Stoically. And then one day you realize that your courage is farcical. It doesn't mean anything. You've become an accomplice in your own annihilation and there is nothing you can do about it. Everything you do closes a door somewhere ahead of you. And finally there is only one door left.
Cormac McCarthy
Image
Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies - or else? The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Image
To annihilate indigenous populations eventually paves the way to our own annihilation. They are the only people who practice sustainable living. We think they are relics of the past, but they may be the gatekeepers to our future.
Arundhati Roy
Image
The highest ideal of cure is the rapid, gentle and permanent restoration of health that is, the lifting and annihilation of the disease in its entire extent in the shortest, most reliable, and least disadvantageous way, according to clearly realizable principles.
Samuel Hahnemann
Image
This suffering, this unspeakable capacity to bleed and to know pain and to know annihilation, is what has to be overcome in this world if anyone is to reach God.
Anne Rice
Image
The gopis seek Krishna, another part of themselves that create ecstasy. The man seeks the woman, the woman seeks the man. The Tantric Buddhist seeks annihilation of the ego.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Death is not complete annihilation. It is a pause. It is like pressing the pause button on a tape recorder.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
Nothing suffers annihilation, but at dissolution there is a change, and things fall back to the essential element in which they were before.
Marcus Vitruvius Pollio
Image
What men fear is not that death is annihilation but that it is not.
Epicurus
Image
The highest form of love is the love that allows for intimacy without the annihilation of difference.
Parker J. Palmer
Image
All men hate the wretched how, then, must I be hated, who am miserable beyond all living things! Yet you, my creator, detest and spurn me, thy creature, to whom thou are bound by ties only dissoluble by the annihilation of one of us.
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Image
So not even death can stop my mother from seeking the annihilation of her own flesh and blood.
