It is very important for us to regain at least some basic experience of the living genius of language. This will especially promote worldwide social understanding. Forgive me if I use another example—near and dear to me—to explain what I mean. But please be very careful not to misunderstand what I am about to say. On page eighty-eight in the English translation of my book *Die Kernpunkte der sozialen Frage*—translated as *The Threefold Commonwealth*—I find this: “The freedom of one cannot prosper without the freedom of all.” This sentence makes no sense when weighed by a deep feeling for words. As I said, you must not misunderstand me, but this English sentence is simply nonsense, because it says something very different from the original German words, which read, “ *Die Freiheit des Einen kann micht ohne die Freiheit des Anderen gedeihen.*” This sentence really tries to say something completely different.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"XIV.
