Hannah Arendt Quotes

The Private Realm Of The Household Was The Sphere Where The Necessities Of Life, Of Individual Survival As Well As Of Continuity Of The Species, Were Taken Care Of And Guaranteed. One Of The Characteristics Of Privacy, Prior To The Discovery Of The Intimate, Was That Man Existed In This Sphere Not As A Truly Human Being But Only As A Specimen Of The Animal Species Man-kind. This, Precisely, Was The Ultimate Reason For The Tremendous Contempt Held For It By Antiquity. The Emergence Of Society Has Changed The Estimate Of This Whole Sphere But Has Hardly Transformed Its Nature. The Monolithic Character Of Every Type Of Society, Its Conformism Which Allows For Only One Interest And One Opinion, Is Ultimately Rooted In The One-ness Of Man-kind.
