”Dit is dr. Anton Rupert wat gesê het: ‘Die mens wat nie in wonderwerke glo nie, is geen realis nie.’ So ook kan gesê word van die Afrikaner wat nie glo dat sy Skepper ’n duidelike hand in die lotgevalle van die Afrikanervolk openbaar nie.“ 1 (Bezuidenhout 1969: 62.) ”’n Boer maak ’n plan.” 2 (An Afrikaans saying) 1 “It is Dr. Anton Rupert who said: ‘Who ever does not believe in miracles, is not a realist.’ This can also be said of the Afrikaner who does not believe that the fate of the Afrikaner people has undoubtedly been steered by his Maker.” 2 “An Afrikaner makes a plan”, an old saying referring to the Afrikaner ideal of a virtuous, resourceful, far-seeing and simultaneously cunning person who, in a difficult situation, has taken all the possibilities into account beforehand, and has based his calculations on cold rational planning and information. 3
