“The population called the caucasian race [the white race] is the actual cultural race, which is not able to handle magic any more, but has to rely to mechanism.”(Rudolf Steiner)

“Because even the negroes we have to accept as human beings, and within them the human form is depicted in a very different way as in ourselves, for example.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“That awful cultural brutality of transplating black people to europe is an awful deed, forced on others by the French. It reflects back even worse on France.
Upon blood, upon race, this reflects incredibly strong.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“The other day i went to a book store in Basel, and found the latest assortment of books that was to be printed: a negro novel, just like negroes slowly migrate into the civilisation of europe in general.
Everywhere you find this enacting of negro dances, hopping of negro dances.
But we already have this negro novel. It´s extremly boring, ghastly boring, but people devour it.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“Yes, i for myself am convinced, that if we receive another number of negro novels, and pass them to be read by pregnant women, you dont have to see to it that negroes come to europe, that mulattoes are generated;
just by reading negro novels a whole number of mulatto children is created in europe, who are all gray, have mulatto hair, that will look all mulatto-like.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“Those blacks in africa have the nature to suck up all the light and wamth from space. They consume that. And that light and that warmth in space can not pass through the whole body, because man always is man, even when he is black.
It does not pass through the whole body, but stays on the surface of the skin, and then the skin itself turns black.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“So the negro has a strong sex drive. And since he actually has the sun, light and warmth there on his body surface, in his skin, his whole metabolism is working inside as if it´s cooked by the sun itself. Thats where the sex drive comes from.
Inside of the negro, all this is constantly truly cooked, and what is fanning the fire is the afterbrain.
And we europeans, we poor europeans, have got the thought-life, that is rooted in the brain.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“When the Negroes emigrate to the west, they can not gather as much light and warmth as they did in africa. So they turn red as copper, become redskins. That results from being forced to reflect some of that light and warmth.
This then glows copper red. They can not resist that. This is why the redskins get extinct in the west, in turn become a race that is ceasing to exist, dying of their own nature, that is receiving too little light and warmth, dying out because of the mundane.
The whites are actually the ones that develop the humaneness inside of them.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“Because it is true as a matter of fact, that the more the blond races die out, the more the instinctive wisdom of man dies out. Humanity becomes dumber.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“And when the jews for example feel insulted when you say: You are no sculptors, there is nothing you can accomplish in this field – so you can say to yourself: Not all people have to be sculptors!
So it is true that the jews are not fit to be sculptors; from the ten commandments they absorbed that one: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image”, because in figurative view they dont want to depict anything transcendental.“ (Rudolf Steiner)
