10. "In the world of realities, as a rule, we encounter the ever-renewed experience that the adherent of an ethic of ultimate ends suddenly turns into a chiliastic prophet. Those, for example, who have just preached 'love against violence' now call for the use of force for the last violent deed, which would then lead to a state of affairs in which all violence is annihilated" (Max Weber, From Max Weber: Essays in Sociology, trans. H. H. Gerth and C.Wright Mills [New York: Oxford University Press, 1946], 122).
