“It is in the very nature of totalitarian regimes to demand unlimited power. Such power can only be secured if literally all men, without a single exception, are reliably dominated in every aspect of their life. (…)
(…) spontaneity as such, with its incalculability, is the greatest of all obstacles to total domination over man.”
