I Wish And Will Continue To Wish, That The German People Should Learn That By Reason Of Practical Examples Afforded By Their Ability And Work, They Are Not A Second-rate Or Inferior People In Comparison With Others. On The Contrary They Are Their Equals According To All True Standards Of Values And Therefore Entitled To Equal Rights In All Respects.

The Grossly Impudent Lie Always Leaves Traces Behind It, Even After It Has Been Nailed Down.

I Wish To Give Officials Greater Discretion. The State's Authority Will Be Increased Thereby. I Wish To Transform The Non-political Criminal Police Into A Political Instrument Of The Highest State Authority.

The Black-haired Jewish Youth Lies In Wait For Hours On End, Satanically Glaring At And Spying On The Unsuspicious Girl Whom He Plans To Seduce, Adulterating Her Blood And Removing Her From The Bosom Of Her Own People. The Jew Uses Every Possible Means To Undermine The Racial Foundations Of A Subjugated People.

You See, It's Been Our Misfortune To Have The Wrong Religion. Why Didn't We Have The Religion Of The Japanese, Who Regard Sacrifice For The Fatherland As The Highest Good? The Mohammedan Religion [islam] Too Would Have Been More Compatible To Us Than Christianity. Why Did It Have To Be Christianity With Its Meekness And Flabbiness?

The National Socialist Movement, Which Aims At Establishing The National Socialist People's State, Must Always Bear Steadfastly In Mind The Principle That Every Future Institution Under That State Must Be Rooted In The Movement Itself.

The Parliamentary Principle Of Vesting Legislative Power In The Decision Of The Majority Rejects The Authority Of The Individual And Puts A Numerical Quota Of Anonymous Heads In Its Place. In Doing So It Contradicts The Aristocratic Principle, Which Is A Fundamental Law Of Nature.

I Saw My Enemies In Munich, And They Are Worms.

I Ought To Have Seized The Initiative In 1938 Instead Of Allowing Myself To Be Forced Into War In 1939; For War Was, In Any Case, Unavoidable. However, You Can Hardly Blame Me If The British And The French Accepted At Munich Every Demand I Made Of Them! (14th February 1945)

All Propaganda Must Be Popular And Its Intellectual Level Must Be Adjusted To The Most Limited Intelligence Among Those It Is Addressed To.

I'm Sure That Nero Didn't Set Fire To Rome. It Was The Christian-bolsheviks Who Did That, Just As The Commune Set Fire To Paris In 1871 And The Communists Set Fire To The Reichstag In 1932.

The Most Foolish Mistake We Could Possibly Make Would Be To Permit The Conquered Eastern Peoples To Have Arms. History Teaches That All Conquerors Who Have Allowed Their Subject Races To Carry Arms Have Prepared Their Own Downfall By Doing So.

As Soon As One Point Alone Is Removed From The Sphere Of Dogmatic Certainty, The Discussion Will Not Simply Result In A New And Better Formulation Which Will Have Greater Consistency But May Easily Lead To Endless Debates And General Confusion.

The Church Has Realized That Anything And Everything Can Be Built Up On A Document Of That Sort, No Matter How Contradictory Or Irreconcilable With It. The Faithful Will Swallow It Whole, So Long As Logical Reasoning Is Never Allowed To Be Brought To Bear On It.

Logical Reasoning

The Whites Have Carried To These (colonial) People The Worst That They Could Carry: The Plagues Of The World: Materialism, Fanaticism, Alcoholism, And Syphilis. Moreover, Since What These People Possessed On Their Own Was Superior To Anything We Could Give Them, They Have Remained Themselves... The Sole Result Of The Activity Of The Colonizers Is: They Have Everywhere Aroused Hatred.

Just As A Man's Denominational Orientation Is The Result Of Upbringing, And Only The Religious Need As Such Slumbers In His Soul, The Political Opinion Of The Masses Represents Nothing But The Final Result Of An Incredibly Tenacious And Thorough Manipulation Of Their Mind And Soul.

When There Is Change, It Must Not Alter The Content Of What Propaganda Is Driving At, But In The End Must Always Say The Same Thing.

Y Feelings As A Christian Points Me To My Lord And Savior As A Fighter. It Points Me To The Man Who Once In Loneliness, Surrounded By A Few Followers, Recognized These Jews For What They Were And Summoned Men To Fight Against Them And Who, God's Truth! Was Greatest Not As A Sufferer But As A Fighter. In Boundless Love As A Christian And As A Man I Read Through The Passage Which Tells Us How The Lord At Last Rose In His Might And Seized The Scourge To Drive Out Of The Temple The Brood Of Vipers And Adders.

I Have Been Europe's Last Hope. She Proved Incapable Of Refashioning Herself By Means Of Voluntary Reform. She Showed Herself Impervious To Charm And Persuasion. To Take Her I Had To Use Violence. (26th February)

The Hard Struggle Which The Pan-germans Fought With The Catholic Church Can Be Accounted For Only By Their Insufficient Understanding Of The Spiritual Nature Of The People.

There Is, Then, No Danger In The Circumstances That Anti-semitism Will Disappear, For It Is The Jews Themselves Who Add Fuel To Its Flames And See That It Is Kept Well Stoked. Before The Opposition To It Can Disappear, The Malady Itself Must Disappear. And From That Point Of View, You Can Rely On The Jews: As Long As They Survive, Anti-semitism Will Never Fade. (13th February 1945)

I Don't See Much Future For The Americans ... It's A Decayed Country. And They Have Their Racial Problem, And The Problem Of Social Inequalities ... My Feelings Against Americanism Are Feelings Of Hatred And Deep Repugnance ... Everything About The Behaviour Of American Society Reveals That It's Half Judaised, And The Other Half Negrified. How Can One Expect A State Like That To Hold Together?

It Would Be More In Keeping With The Intention Of The Noblest Man In This World If Our Two Christian Churches, Instead Of Annoying Negroes With Missions Which They Neither Desire Nor Understand, Would Kindly, But In All Seriousness, Teach Our European Humanity That Where Parents Are Not Healthy It Is A Deed Pleasing To God To Take Pity On A Poor Little Healthy Orphan Child And Give Him Father And Mother, Than Themselves To Give Birth To A Sick Child Who Will Only Bring Unhappiness And Suffering On Himself And The Rest Of The World.

The German Countryside Must Be Preserved Under All Circumstances, For It Is And Has Forever Been The Source Of Strength And Greatness Of Our People.

Our Present Political World-view, Current In Germany, Is Based In General On The Idea That Creative, Culture-creating Force Must Indeed Be Attributed To The State.

Not Until My Fourteenth Or Fifteenth Year Did I Begin To Come Across The Word 'jew,' With Any Frequency, Partly In Connection With Political Discussions.... For The Jew Was Still Characterized For Me By Nothing But His Religion, And Therefore, On Grounds Of Human Tolerance, I Maintained My Rejection Of Religious Attacks In This Case As In Others. Consequently, The Tone, Particularly That Of The Viennese Anti-semitic Press, Seemed To Me Unworthy Of The Cultural Tradition Of A Great Nation.

For One Cannot Assume That God Exists To Help People Who Are Too Cowardly And Too Lazy To Help Themselves And Think That God Exists Only To Make Up For The Weakness Of Mankind. He Does Not Exist For That Purpose. He Has Always, At All Times, Blessed Only Those Who Were Prepared To Fight Their Own Battles.

Imagine Me Going Around With A Pot Belly. It Would Mean Political Ruin.

A Folkish State Must Therefore Begin By Raising Marriage From The Level Of A Continuous Defilement Of The Race, And Give It The Consecration Of An Institution Which Is Called Upon To Produce Images Of The Lord And Not Monstrosities Halfway Between Man And Ape.

The American President Increasingly Used His Influence To Create Conflicts, Intensify Existing Conflicts, And, Above All, To Keep Conflicts From Being Resolved Peacefully. For Years This Man Looked For A Dispute Anywhere In The World, But Preferably In Europe, That He Could Use To Create Political Entanglements With American Economic Obligations To One Of The Contending Sides, Which Would Then Steadily Involve America In The Conflict And Thus Divert Attention From His Own Confused Domestic Economic Policies.

The Sin Against Blood And Race Is The Hereditary Sin In This World And It Brings Disaster On Every Nation That Commits It.

Our Enemies Must Not Deceive Themselves-in The 2,000 Years Of German History Known To Us, Our People Have Never Been More United Than Today. The Lord Of The Universe Has Treated Us So Well In The Past Years That We Bow In Gratitude To A Providence Which Has Allowed Us To Be Members Of Such A Great Nation. We Thank Him That We Also Can Be Entered With Honor Into The Ever-lasting Book Of German History!

Believe Me, National Socialism Would Not Be Worth Anything If It Were To Be Confined To Germany And Did Not Secure The Rule Of The Superior Race Over The Whole World For At Least One Or Two Thousand Years.

[it Is] Useful To Know The Laws Of Nature - For That Enables Us To Obey Them. To Act Otherwise Would Be To Rise In Revolt Against Heaven.

The Government Will Make Use Of These Powers Only Insofar As They Are Essential For Carrying Out Vitally Necessary Measures.... The Separate Existence Of The Federal States Will Not Be Done Away.... The Number Of Cases In Which An Internal Necessity Exists For Having Recourse To Such Law Is In Itself A Limited One.

More People Died As A Result Of The Tiny Abortive Easter Uprising Against British Rule In Ireland (1916) Than Died As A Result Of Political Violence In Germany During The Entire National Socialist Revolution.

For A People, As For An Individual, It Is Tragic To Have Ambitions And To Lack Both The Means Essential To Their Fulfillment And Any Hope Of Acquiring Those Means.

Struggle Is Gruesome Only For The Weak.

Nationalist Socialist Germany Wants Peace Because Of Its Fundamental Convictions. And It Wants Peace Also Owing To The Realization Of The Simple Primitive Fact That No War Would Be Likely Essentially To Alter The Distress In Europe. The Principal Effect Of Every War Is To Destroy The Flower Of The Nation. Germany Needs Peace And Desires Peace!

The Folkish Philosophy Of Life Must Succeed In Bringing About That Nobler Age In Which Men No Longer Are Concerned With Breeding Dogs, Horses, And Cats, But In Elevating Man Himself.

In Political Matters Feeling Often Decides More Correctly Than Reason.

...it Is Said With Such Terrible Justice That The Sins Of The Fathers Are Avenged Down To The Tenth Generation. But This Applies Only To Profanation Of The Blood And The Race.

We Stand For The Maintenance Of Private Property... We Shall Protect Free Enterprise As The Most Expedient, Or Rather The Sole Possible Economic Order.

A Meeting Between Two People Who Complete Each Other, Who Are Made For Each Other, Borders Already, In My Opinion, On A Miracle.

Difference Which Exists Between The Lowest, So-called Men, And The Other Higher Races Is Greater Than Between The Lowest Men And The Highest Apes.

To Attain Our Aim We Should Stop At Nothing Even If We Must Join Forces With The Devil.

German Economic Salvation Has Been Brought About Solely Through The Efforts Of The German People And The Experience They Have Gained. Countries Abroad Have Contributed Nothing To This.

I Must Frankly Admit That... I Should Probably Lose All Interest In Life And Would Rather Not Be A German At All. But Since, Thank The Lord, This Cannot Be Done, We Have No Need To Be Surprised That The Health, Unspoiled People Avoid 'bourgeois Mass Meetings' As The Devil Holy Water.

Gold Is Not Necessary. I Have No Interest In Gold. We'll Build A Solid State, Without An Ounce Of Gold Behind It. Anyone Who Sells Above The Set Prices, Let Him Be Marched Off To A Concentration. That's The Bastion Of Money.

We Were Not Foolish Enough To Try To Make A Currency [backed By] Gold Of Which We Had None, But For Every Mark That Was Issued We Required The Equivalent Of A Mark's Worth Of Work Done Or Goods Produced ... We Laugh At The Time Our National Financiers Held The View That The Value Of A Currency Is Regulated By The Gold And Securities Lying In The Vaults Of A State Bank.

Pride In One's Own Race - And That Does Not Imply Contempt For Other Races - Is Also A Normal And Healthy Sentiment. I Have Never Regarded The Chinese Or The Japanese As Being Inferior To Ourselves. They Belong To Ancient Civilizations, And I Admit Freely That Their Past History Is Superior To Our Own. They Have The Right To Be Proud Of Their Past, Just As We Have The Right To Be Proud Of The Civilization To Which We Belong. Indeed, I Believe The More Steadfast The Chinese And The Japanese Remain In Their Pride Of Race, The Easier I Shall Find It To Get On With Them.

If The War Is Lost, The Nation Will Also Perish. This Fate Is Inevitable. There Is No Necessity To Take Into Consideration The Basis Which The People Will Need To Continue A Most Primitive Existence. On The Contrary, It Will Be Better To Destroy Things Ourselves Because This Nation Will Have Proved To Be The Weaker One And The Future Will Belong Solely To The Stronger Eastern Nation [russia]. Besides, Those Who Remain After The Battle Are Only The Inferior Ones, For The Good Ones Have Been Killed.

Christianity [is] A Rebellion Against Natural Law, A Protest Against Nature.

[w]e Will Do What We Like With The Bourgeoisie. ... We Give The Orders; They Do What They Are Told. Any Resistance Will Be Broken Ruthlessly.

The State Dominates The Nation Because It Alone Represents It.

The State Must Act As The Guardian Of A Millennial Future In The Face Of Which The Wishes And The Selfishness Of The Individual Must Appear As Nothing And Submit.

The Struggle For World Domination Is Between Me And The Jews. All Else Is Meaningless. The Jews Have Inflicted Two Wounds On The World: Circumcision For The Body And Conscience For The Soul. I Come To Free Mankind From Their Shackles.

The Art Of Leadership . . . Consists In Consolidating The Attention Of The People Against A Single Adversary And Taking Care That Nothing Will Split Up That Attention. . . . The Leader Of Genius Must Have The Ability To Make Different Opponents Appear As If They Belong To One Category.

England, Unlike In 1914, Will Not Allow Herself To Blunder Into A War Lasting For Years.... Such Is The Fate Of Rich Countries.. .not Even England Has The Money Nowadays To Fight A World War. What Should England Fight For? You Don't Get Yourself Killed Over An Ally.

...a Man Does Not Die For Business, But For Ideals.

Terrorism Is The Best Political Weapon For Nothing Drives People Harder Than A Fear Of Sudden Death.

Then We'll Work A Hundred Years Without Physics And Chemistry.

The Attack Against Dogmas As Such, Therefore, Strongly Resembles The Struggle Against The General Legal Foundations Of A State, And , As The Latter Would End In A Total Anarchy Of The State, The Former Would End In A Worthless Religious Nihilism.

The Women Has Her Own Battlefield With Every Child She Brings Into The World She Fights A Battle For The Nation

In Relation To The Political Decontamination Of Our Public Life, The Government Will Embark Upon A Systematic Campaign To Restore The Nation's Moral And Material Health. The Whole Educational System, Theater, Film, Literature, The Press And Broadcasting - All These Will Be Used As A Means To This End.

Thank The Lord, Germanic Democracy Means Just This: That Any Old Climber Or Moral Slacker Cannot Rise By Devious Paths To Govern His National Comrades, But That, By The Very Greatness Of The Responsibility To Be Assumed, Incompetents And Weaklings Are Frightened Of.

Thus Inwardly Armed With Confidence In God And The Unshakable Stupidity Of The Voting Citizenry, The Politicians Can Begin The Fight For The 'remaking' Of The Reich As They Call It.

Catholic Religion

The Internal And International Criminal Gang Will Either Be Forced To Work Or Simply Exterminated.

I Hold To My Conviction That, Once This Path Of Mutual Understanding And Consideration Has Been Taken, More Will Come Of It In The End Than Through Ever So Extensive Pacts Inherently Lacking In Clarity.

The One Means That Wins The Easiest Victory Over Reason Is Terror And Force.

Today In May 1938, The World Around Us Suffers From The Anxiety Which The Unemployment Of Millions Brings With It. In Germany We Begin To Be Anxious Because We Have Not Enough Workmen.

The Whole Of Education Should Be Designed So As To Occupy A Boy's Free Time In Cultivation Of His Body. He Has No Right To Loaf About Idly; But After His Day's Work Is Done, He Ought To Harden His Young Body, So That Life May Not Find Him Soft When He Enters It. No One Should Be Allowed To Sin At The Expense Of Posterity, That Is, Of The Race.

There Is Nothing Great In The World That Does Not Owe Its Origin To The Creative Ability Of An Individual Man.

I Certainly Am Not Alone In The World With This Demand; I Am In The Best Of Company. Let It Be Said That No Self-respecting People And No Responsible Government Would Be Able To Think Or Much Less Act Differently In Such A Case. The World Has Already Seen A Great Many Wars Lost In The Past.

I Am Personally Convinced Of The Great Power And Deep Significance Of Christianity, And I Won't Allow Any Other Religion To Be Promoted.

Christianity Is A Rebellion Against Natural Law, A Protest Against Nature. Taken To Its Logical Extreme, Christianity Would Mean The Systematic Cultivation Of The Human Failure.

The Wage Of A People Has Meaning Only When It Arises From Production. Every Increase In Production Should Benefit The Whole People And Raise The People's Standards Of Living.

Sooner Will A Camel Pass Through A Needle's Eye Than A Great Man Be "discovered" By An Election.

To Them Belong, Not Only The Truly Great Statesmen, But All Other Great Reformers As Well. Beside Frederick The Great Stands Martin Luther As Well As Richard Wagner.

The President Of The United States Has A Much Wider Power Than The German Kaiser Had, For He Depended On Parliament.

For We Love Liberty Just As We Love Peace.

If The Question Is Still Asked Why National Socialism Combats The Jewish Element In Germany So Fanatically, The Answer Can Only Be, Because National Socialism Wishes To Establish A Real Community Of The People. Since We Are National Socialists, We Cannot Permit An Alien Race To Impose Itself Upon Our Working People As Their Leaders.

In This World Him Who Does Not Abandon Himself The Almighty Will Not Desert. Him Who Helps Himself Will The Almighty Always Also Help; He Will Show Him The Way By Which He Can Gain His Rights, His Freedom, And Therefore His Future.

It [the Sudetenland] Is The Last Territorial Claim That I Have To Make In Europe.

You Will Never Learn What I Am Thinking. And Those Who Boast Most Loudly That They Know My Thought, To Such People I Lie Even More.

A Highly Intelligent Man Should Take A Primitive Woman. Imagine If On Top Of Everything Else, I Had A Woman Who Interfered With My Work.

Woman's World Is Her Husband, Her Family, Her Children And Her Home. We Do Not Find It Right When She Presses Into The World Of Men.

A Victory At Kursk Would Shine Like A Beacon To The World!

God Grant That This Is The Work Of The Communists. You Are Witnessing The Beginning Of A Great New Epoch In German History. This Fire Is The Beginning.

Everlasting Peace Will Come To The World When The Last Man Has Slain The Last But One.

By The Skillful And Sustained Use Of Propaganda, One Can Make A People See Even Heaven As Hell Or An Extremely Wretched Life As Paradise.

The German People Are Not A Warlike Nation. It Is A Soldierly One, Which Means It Does Not Want A War, But Does Not Fear It. It Loves Peace But Also Loves Its Honor And Freedom

May The Time Not Be Far Off When All Other European Nations Will Come To The Realisation That The Primary Necessity Is Putting An End To The Quarrels And Strife Of Centuries And Of Building Up Of A Finer Community Of All Peoples Is: The Recognition Of A Higher Common Duty Arising Out Of Common Rights?

God Helps Only Those Who Are Prepared And Determined To Help Themselves.

Our Task Is To Harness The God-given Energy Of This German Nation To Stand Firm For The Truth.

The Only Preventative Measure One Can Take Is To Live Irregularly.

Since We Are Not In The League Of Nations In Any Case, We Do Not Devote Our Attention To Reflecting On Its Internal Reforms.

The Application Of Force Alone, Without Support Based On A Spiritual Concept, Can Never Bring About The Destruction Of An Idea Or Arrest The Propagation Of It, Unless One Is Ready And Able To Ruthlessly To Exterminate The Last Upholders Of That Idea Even To A Man, And Also Wipe Out Any Tradition Which It May Tend To Leave Behind.

Truly, This Earth Is A Trophy Cup For The Industrious Man. And This Rightly So, In The Service Of Natural Selection. He Who Does Not Possess The Force To Secure His Lebensraum In This World, And, If Necessary, To Enlarge It, Does Not Deserve To Possess The Necessities Of Life. He Must Step Aside And Allow Stronger Peoples To Pass Him By.

Who Says I Am Not Under The Special Protection Of God?

Conscience Is A Jewish Invention.

Only In The Steady And Constant Application Of Force Lies The Very First Prerequisite For Success. This Persistence, However, Can Always And Only Arise From A Definite Spiritual Conviction. Any Violence Which Does Not Spring From A Firm, Spiritual Base, Will Be Wavering And Uncertain.

The Reason Why The Ancient World Was So Pure, Light And Serene Was That It Knew Nothing Of The Two Great Scourges : The Pox And Christianity.

In The Ranks Of The Movement [national Socialist Movement], The Most Devout Protestant Could Sit Beside The Most Devout Catholic, Without Coming Into The Slightest Conflict With His Religious Convictions. The Mighty Common Struggle Which Both Carried On Against The Destroyer Of Aryan Humanity Had, On The Contrary, Taught Them Mutually To Respect And Esteem One Another.

Only In The Roman Empire And In Spain Under Arab Domination Has Culture Been A Potent Factor. Under The Arab, The Standard Attained Was Wholly Admirable; To Spain Flocked The Greatest Scientists, Thinkers, Astronomers, And Mathematicians Of The World, And Side By Side There Flourished A Spirit Of Sweet Human Tolerance And A Sense Of Purist Chivalry. Then With The Advent Of Christianity, Came The Barbarians.

I Want Everyone To Keep The Property That He Has Acquired For Himself According To The Principle: Benefit To The Community Precedes Benefit To The Individual.
