  • Robin George Collingwood (1889-1943)There have been German philosophers, I am thinking especially of Hegel and his follower Marx, who believed that the future in its general lines admitted of being scientifically foretold; more fools they. Our relation to the future is not that the future, while it is still future, is to be foreknown by us; the future can be known only when it has become the present; but that it has to be made by us, by the strength of our hands and the stoutness of our hearts.

    (R. G. Collingwood, The Three Laws of Politics, L. T. Hobhouse Memorial Trust Lecture No. 11 [London: Humphrey Milford, for Oxford University Press, 1941], 1-26, at 25-6)

  • To the editor:

    President Trump’s speech to the United Nations again illustrates his arrogance, ignorance and disregard for what is really at stake on the world stage. (“In first U.N. speech, Trump derides Kim Jong Un as ‘Rocket Man’ and threatens to ‘totally destroy’ North Korea,” Sept. 19)

    His referring to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un as “Rocket Man” is irresponsible. His continuous bullying tactics put the world at risk for another war. This man has clearly shown on many occasions that he does not have the ability to be an effective leader, and yet in the White House he stays.

    The United States is much better than what the world sees and what we are allowing to continue.
