Popular passages
Page vi - German youth movement, at least in its first phase, was not its "intellectual leap-frogging" and confused politics but something else entirely. The movement represented an unpolitical form of opposition to a civilization that had little to offer the young generation, a protest against the lack of vitality, warmth, emotion, and ideals in German society.
