National Socialist Germany Wishes For Peace Because It Recognises The Simple Fact That No War Would Be Likely To Substantially To Ameliorate The State Of Distress In Europe. The Distress Would Probably Be Made The Greater Thereby. If Only The Leaders And Rulers Had Wanted Peace, The People Would Never Have Wished For War.

If Freedom Is Short Of Weapons, We Must Compensate With Willpower.

The State Dominates The Nation Because It Alone Represents It.

It Is Eastwards, Only And Always Eastwards, That The Veins Of Our Race Must Expand. It Is The Direction Which Nature Herself Has Decreed For The Expansion Of The German Peoples.

I Can Not Be Mistaken - What I Say And Do Is Historical.i Follow My Life With The Precision And Security Of A Sleep Walker

People Have Killed Only When They Could Not Achieve Their Aim In Other Ways There Is A Broadened Strategy, With Intellectual Weapons Why Should I Demoralize The Enemy By Military Means If I Can Do So Better And More Cheaply In Other Ways?

Politics Is History In The Making.

And I Can Fight Only For Something That I Love, Love Only What I Respect, And Respect Only What I At Least Know.

I Shall Give A Propagandist Reason For Starting The War, No Matter Whether It Is Plausible Or Not. The Victor Will Not Be Asked Afterwards Whether He Told The Truth Or Not. When Starting And Waging War It Is Not Right That Matters, But Victory.

To Whom Should Propaganda Be Addressed? To The Scientifically Trained Intelligentsia Or The Less Educated Masses? It Must Be Addressed Always And Exclusively To The Masses.

Thus One Of Europe's Most Serious Crises Will Be Ended, And All Of Us, Not Only In Germany But Those Far Beyond Our Frontiers, Will Then In This Year For The First Time Really Rejoice At The Christmas Festival. It Should For Us All Be A True Festival Of Peace.

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.

The Phrase, 'emancipation Of Women' Is Only An Invention Of The Jewish Intellect And Its Content Is Stamped With The Same Spirit. In The Really Good Periods Of German Life The German Woman Never Needed To Emancipate Herself.

Let Us Never Forget The Duty, Which We Have Taken Upon Us

Never In These Long Years Have We Offered Any Other Prayer But This: Lord, Grant To Our People Peace At Home, And Grant And Preserve To Them Peace From The Foreign Foe!

All In All, This Whole Period Of Winter 1919-20 Was A Single Struggle To Strengthen Confidence In The Victorious Might Of The Young Movement And Raise It To That Fanaticism Of Faith Which Can Move Mountains.

Was There Any Form Of Filth Or Crime Without At Least One Jew Involved In It? If You Cut Into Such A Sore, You Find, Like A Maggot In A Rotting Body, Often Dazzled By The Sudden Light, A Jew.

In Political Matters Feeling Often Decides More Correctly Than Reason.

If Dr. Karl Lueger Had Lived In Germany, He Would Have Been Ranked Among The Great Minds Of Our People.

You, My Brown Guard, Will Regard It As A Matter Of Course That This German People Should Go Only By The Way Which Providence Ordained For It When It Gave To Germans The Common Language. So We Go Forward With The Profoundest Faith In God Into The Future. Would That Which We Have Achieved Have Been Possible If Providence Had Not Helped Us?

This Pride Of Race Is A Quality Which The German, Fundamentally, Does Not Possess. The Reason For This Is That For These Last Three Centuries The Country Has Been Torn By Internal Dissension And Religious Wars And Has Been Subjected To A Variety Of Foreign Influences, To The Influence, For Example, Of Christianity-for Christianity Is Not A Natural Religion For The Germans, But A Religion That Has Been Imported And Which Strikes No Responsive Chord In Their Hearts And Is Foreign To The Inherent Genius Of The Race. (13th February 1945)

Besides That, I Believe One Thing: There Is A Lord God! And This Lord God Creates The Peoples.

Social Honour Recognises No Distinction Between The Employer And The Unemployed. All Of Them Work For A Common Purpose And Are Entitled To Equal Honour And Respect.

In Nearly All The Matters In Which The Pan-german Movement Was Wanting, The Attitude Of The Christian Social Party Was Correct And Well-planned.

Anyone Can Deal With Victory. Only The Mighty Can Bear Defeat.

Victory And Defeat

The Great Masses Of People Do Not Consist Of Philosophers; Precisely For The Masses, Faith Is Often The Sole Foundation Of A Moral Attitude. The Various Substitutes Have Not Proved So Successful From The Standpoint Of Results That They Could Be Regarded As A Useful Replacement For Previous Religious Creeds. But If Religious Doctrine And Faith Are Really To Embrace The Broad Masses, The Unconditional Authority Of The Content Of This Faith Is The Foundation Of All Efficacy.

Unscrupulous Agitators Have Been At Work Spreading Atrocity Stories Which Can Only Be Compared With Those Lies That Were Fabricated By The Same Instigators At The Beginning Of The Great War.

Today I Must Humbly Thank Providence, Whose Grace Has Enabled Me, Who Was Once An Unknown Soldier In The War, To Bring To A Successful Issue The Struggle For The Restoration Of Our Honor And Rights As A Nation.

I Am Asking Of No Man More Than I Myself Was Ready Throughout Four Years To Do

Being Daily Better Informed About Their Knowledge Than My Adversaries Themselves, I Argued Till Finally One Day They Applied The One Means That Wins The Easiest Victory Over Reason: Terror And Force.

Parallel To The Training Of The Body A Struggle Against The Poisoning Of The Soul Must Begin. Our Whole Public Life Today Is Like A Hothouse For Sexual Ideas And Simulations. Just Look At The Bill Of Fare Served Up In Our Movies, Vaudeville And Theaters, And You Will Hardly Be Able To Deny That This Is Not The Right Kind Of Food, Particularly For The Youth. Theater, Art, Literature, Cinema, Press, Posters, And Window Displays Must Be Cleansed Of All Manifestations Of Our Rotting World And Placed In The Service Of A Moral, Political And Cultural Idea.

Catholics And Protestants Are Fighting With One Another... While The Enemy Of Aryan Humanity And All Christendom Is Laughing Up His Sleeve.

In The Life Of Nations, What In The Last Resort Decides Questions Is A Kind Of Judgment Court Of God... Always Before God And The World The Stronger Has The Right To Carry Through What He Wills.

When I Go Out In The Morning And See These Men Standing In Their Queues And Look Into Their Pinched Faces, Then I Believe I Would Be No Christian, But A Very Devil, If I Felt No Pity For Them, If I Did Not, As Did Our Lord Two Thousand Years Ago, Turn Against Those By Whom Today This Poor People Are Plundered And Exposed.

There Are Certain Truths Which Stand Out So Openly On The Roadsides Of Life, As It Were, That Every Passer-by May See Them. Yet, Because Of Their Obviousness, The General Run Of People Disregard Such Truths Or At Least They Do Not Make Them The Object Of Any Concious Knowledge. People Are So Bliend To Some Of The Simplest Facts In Everyday Life That They Are Highly Surprised When Somebody Calls Attention To What Everybody Ought To Know.

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

Only Constant Repetition Will Finally Succeed In Imprinting An Idea On The Memory Of The Crowd.

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

The National Government Sees In Both Christian Denominations The Most Important Factor For The Maintenance Of Our Society.

The State Must Declare The Child To Be The Most Precious Treasure Of The People. As Long As The Government Is Perceived As Working For The Benefit Of The Children, The People Will Happily Endure Almost Any Curtailment Of Liberty And Almost Any Deprivation.

I Hold That This Must Be Said, For Treaties Only Make Sense When Concluded By Honor-loving Peoples And Honor-conscious Governments. Germany Wishes To Establish Honest Relations With The Peoples Of Neighboring Countries. We Have Done This In The East, And I Believe That Not Only Berlin But Warsaw As Well Will Rejoice In The Decontamination Of The Atmosphere Brought About Through Our Joint Efforts.

By Means Of Shrewd Lies, Unremittingly Repeated, It Is Possible To Make People Believe That Heaven Is Hell - And Hell Heaven. The Greater The Lie, The More Readily It Will Be Believed.

I Believe That This Was God's Will - To Send A Boy Into The Reich, To Let Him Become Its Leader, In Order To Bring His Home Country Into The Reich. Otherwise One Must Doubt Providence.

For When A People Is Not Willing Or Able To Fight For Its Existence- Providence In Its Eternal Justice Has Decreed That People's End.

Columbus's Eggs Lie Around By The Hundreds Of Thousands, But Columbuses Are Met With Less Frequency.

Gentlemen, You Are About To Witness The Most Famous Victory In History.

The Thinking Of The One, Therefore, Will Be Determined By Eternal Truth, The Actions Of The Other More By The Practical Reality Of The Moment. The Greatness Of The One Lies In The Absolute Abstract Soundness Of His Idea.

I Myself And My Wife - In Order To Escape The Disgrace Of Deposition Or Capitulation - Choose Death. It Is Our Wish To Be Burnt Immediately On The Spot Where I Have Carried Out The Greatest Part Of My Daily Work In The Course Of A Twelve Years' Service To My People.

The State Is A Means To An End. Its End Lies In The Preservation And Advancement Of A Community Of Physically And Psychically Homogenous Creatures.

Success Is The Sole Earthly Judge Of Right And Wrong.

Congratulations

How Many Of My Basic Principles Were Upset By This Change In My Attitude Toward The Christian Social Movement! My Views With Regard To Anti-semitism Thus Succumbed To The Passage Of Time, And This Was My Greatest Transformation Of All.

Struggle Is Gruesome Only For The Weak.

This Human World Of Ours Would Be Inconceivable Without The Practical Existence Of A Religious Belief.

Catholic Religion

It Is Not The Neutrals Or The Lukewarm Who Make History.

The Folkish State Must Not Adjust Its Entire Educational Work Primarily To The Inoculation Of Mere Knowledge, But To The Breeding Of Absolutely Healthy Bodies. The Training Of Mental Abilities Is Only Secondary.

We Need Not Fear The Judgement Of History. Who, After All, Speaks Today Of The Extermination Of The Armenians?

Life Never Forgives Weaknesses.

The Only People I Have Been Able To Use Are Those Who Fought

What Good Fortune For Those In Power That People Do Not Think.

I Do Not See Why Man Should Not Be As Cruel As Nature

Our Party Remains As Firm As This Rock And Will Not Be Divided By Any Force In Germany.

Either One Is Factually Equal, And Consequently Morally Equal As Well; On The Other Hand, If One Is Morally Equal, There Is No Reason Why One Should Contest Factual Equality Of Rights Or Simply Refuse To Grant Them.

Become Strong Again In Spirit, Strong In Will, Strong In Endurance, Strong To Bear All Sacrifices

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.

It Doesn't Dawn On This Depraved Bourgeois World That This Is Positively A Sin Against All Reason; That It Is Criminal Lunacy To Keep On Drilling A Born Half-ape Until People Think They Have Made A Lawyer Out Of Him, While Millions Of Members Of The Highest Culture- Race Must Remain In Entirely Unworthy Positions; That It Is A Sin Against The Will Of The Eternal Creator If His Most Gifted Beings By The Hundreds And Hundreds Of Thousands Are Allowed To Degenerate In The Present Proletarian Morass, While Hottentots And Zulu Kaffirs Are Trained For Intellectual Professions.

For There Is One Thing We Must Never Forget... The Majority Can Never Replace The Man. And No More Than A Hundred Empty Heads Make One Wise Man Will An Heroic Decision Arise From A Hundred Cowards.

Germany Has Solemnly Recognized And Guaranteed France Her Frontiers As Determined After The Saar Plebiscite... We Thereby Finally Renounced All Claims To Alsace-lorraine, A Land For Which We Have Fought Two Great Wars.

The German People Have No Idea Of The Extent To Which They Have To Be Gulled In Order To Be Led.

The Sacrifice Of Personal Existence Is Necessary To Secure The Preservation Of The Species.

If In The Past, After Every Lost War, The Unlucky Vanquished Were Divested Forever Of Their Honor And Their Equality Of Rights, The League Of Nations Would Even Now Have To Be Satisfied With A Whole Series Of Non-equal And Thus Ultimately Dishonorable And Inferior Nations.

The Assertion That It Is The Intention Of The German Reich To Coerce The Austrian State Is Absurd!

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 Of Adders.

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.

Marching Diverts Man's Thoughts. Marching Kills Thoughts. Marching Makes An End Of Individuality. Marching Is The Indispensable Magic Stroke Performed In Order To Accustom People To A Mechanical, Quasi-ritualistic Activity Until It Becomes Second Nature.

I Myself Was And Still Am A Child Of The People. It Was Not For The Capitalists That I Undertook This Struggle; It Was For The German Working Man That I Took My Stand.

May Therefore God Give Us The Strength To Continue To Do Our Duty And With This Prayer We Bow In Homage Before Our Dead Heroes, Before Those Whom They Have Left Behind In Bereavement, And Before All The Other Victims Of This War.

Remain Strong In Your Faith, As You Were In Former Years. In This Faith, In Its Close-knit Unity Our People To-day Goes Straight Forward On Its Way And No Power On Earth Will Avail To Stop It.

My Feeling As A Christian Points Me To My Lord And Savior... I Am Fighting For The Work Of The Lord.

The War Against Russia Will Be Such That It Cannot Be Conducted In A Knightly Fashion. This Struggle Is One Of Ideologies And Racial Differences And Will Have To Be Conducted With Unprecedented, Unmerciful And Unrelenting Harshness.

He Who Would Lay Hands Upon Us Will Encounter Thorns And Barbs!

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.

Today We Rule Germany, Tomorrow, The World.

By Rejecting The Authority Of The Individual And Replacing It By The Numbers Of Some Momentary Mob, The Parliamentary Principle Of Majority Rule Sins Against The Basic Aristocratic Principle Of Nature.

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.

Idealism Does Not Represent A Superfluous Expression Of Emotion, But In Truth It Has Been, Is, And Will Be, The Premise For What We Designate As Human Culture...without His Idealistic Attitude All, Even The Most Dazzling Faculties Of The Intellect, Would Remain Mere Intellect Just Like Outward Appearance Without Inner Value, And Never Creative Force....the Purest Idealism Is Unconsciously Equivalent To The Deepest Knowledge.

A Single Blow Must Destroy The Enemy... Without Regard Of Losses... A Gigantic All-destroying Blow.

The Government Of The Reich, Who Regard Christianity As The Unshakable Foundation Of The Morals And Moral Code Of The Nation, Attach The Greatest Value To Friendly Relations With The Holy See And Are Endeavouring To Develop Them.

It Is Always More Difficult To Fight Successfully Against Faith Than Against Knowledge.

Individual Happiness

If Nature Does Not Wish That Weaker Individuals Should Mate With The Stronger, She Wishes Even Less That A Superior Race Should Intermingle With An Inferior One; Because In Such A Case All Her Efforts, Throughout Hundreds Of Thousands Of Years, To Establish An Evolutionary Higher Stage Of Being, May Thus Be Rendered Futile.

The Folkish-minded Man, In Particular, Has The Sacred Duty, Each In His Own Denomination, Of Making People Stop Just Talking Superficially Of God's Will, And Actually Fulfill God's Will, And Not Let God's Word Be Desecrated. For God's Will Gave Men Their Form, Their Essence And Their Abilities. Anyone Who Destroys His Work Is Declaring War On The Lord's Creation, The Divine Will.

I Have Given Orders To My Death Units To Exterminate Without Mercy Or Pity Men, Women And Children Belonging To The Polish Speaking Race... After All, Who Remembers Today The Extermination Of The Armenians?

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.

Brutality Creates Respect.

The Art Of Reading And Studying Consists In Remembering The Essentials And Forgetting What Is Not Essential.

The Folkish Philosophy Is Fundamentally Distinguished From The Marxist By Reason Of The Fact That The Former Recognizes The Significance Of Race And Therefore Also Personal Worth And Has Made These The Pillars Of Its Structure. These Are The Most Important Factors Of Its View Of Life.

The Purest Idealism Is Unconsciously Equivalent To The Deepest Knowledge.

Outward Appearance

I Believe That The Madness Of Communism Would Be The Sole Victor.

There Could Be No Issue Between The Church And The State. The Church, As Such, Has Nothing To Do With Political Affairs. On The Other Hand, The State Has Nothing To Do With The Faith Or Inner Organization Of The Church

Life Is Like A Game, There Could Be Many Players. If You Don't Play With Them, They'll Play With You.

What Is America But Beauty Queens, Millionaires, Stupid Records And Hollywood?

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 Future Of A Movement Is Conditioned By The Fanaticism, Yes, The Intolerance, With Which Its Adherents Uphold It As The Sole Correct Movement, And Push It Past Other Formations Of A Similar Sort.

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.

I Had So Often Sung 'deutschland U:ber Alles' And Shouted 'heil' At The Top Of My Lungs, That It Seemed To Me Almost A Belated Act Of Grace To Be Allowed To Stand As A Witness In The Divine Court Of The Eternal Judge And Proclaim The Sincerity Of This Conviction.

A Sharp Difference Should Exist Between General Education And Specialized Knowledge. As Particularly Today The Latter Threatens More And More To Sink Into The Service Of Pure Mammon, General Education, At Least In Its More Ideal Attitude, Must Be Retained As A Counterweight.

Nearly All Bolshevist Agitators In Germany And Elsewhere Were Jews.

The Government, Being Resolved To Undertake The Political And Moral Purification Of Our Public Life, Are Creating And Securing The Conditions Necessary For A Really Profound Revival Of Religious Life

The Main Plank In The National Socialist Program Is To Abolish The Liberalistic Concept Of The Individual And The Marxist Concept Of Humanity And To Substitute For Them The Folk Community, Rooted In The Soil And Bound Together By The Bond Of Its Common Blood.

Indeed, Nearly All Attempts To Exterminate A Doctrine And Its Organizational Expression, By Force Without Spiritual Foundation, Are Doomed To Failure, And Not Seldom End With The Exact Opposite Of The Desired Result.

The Parliamentary Principle Of Decision By Majorities Only Appears During Quite Short Periods Of History, And Those Are Always Periods Of Decadence In Nations And States.

The Receptivity Of The Masses Is Very Limited, Their Intelligence Is Small, But Their Power Of Forgetting Is Enormous. In Consequence Of These Facts, All Effective Propaganda Must Be Limited To A Very Few Points And Must Harp On These In Slogans Until The Last Member Of The Public Understands What You Want Him To Understand By Your Slogan.

All Work Which Is Necessary Ennobles Him Who Performs It. Only One Thing Is Shameful - To Contribute Nothing To The Community.

For The Greater A Man's Works For The Future, The Less The Present Can Comprehend Them; The Harder His Fight, And The Rarer Success. If, However, Once In Centuries Success Does Come To A Man, Perhaps In His Latter Days A Faint Beam Of His Coming Glory May Shine Upon Him. To Be Sure, These Great Men Are Only The Marathon Runners Of History; The Laurel Wreath Of The Present Touches Only The Brow Of The Dying Hero.

The Truth Is The Best Propaganda.

...we Understand Only The Individual's Capacity To Make Sacrifices For The Community, For His Fellow Men.

Universal Education Is The Most Corroding And Disintegrating Poison That Liberalism Has Ever Invented For Its Own Destruction.

We Have Now Armed To Such An Extent As The World Has Never Before Seen.

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

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

If The Lie Is Large Enough, Everyone Will Believe It.

Tell A Lie Loud Enough And Long Enough And People Will Believe It.

An Evil Exists That Threatens Every Man, Woman, And Child Of This Great Nation. We Must Take Steps To Ensure Our Domestic Security And Protect Our Homeland.

The Essential Thing Is The Formation Of The Political Will Of The Nation: That Is The Starting Point For Political Action.

Struggle Is The Father Of All Things. It Is Not By The Principles Of Humanity That Man Lives Or Is Able To Preserve Himself Above The Animal World, But Solely By Means Of The Most Brutal Struggle.

When Our Party Had Only Seven Men, It Already Had Two Principles. First, It Wanted To Be A Party With A True Ideology. And Second, It Wanted To Be The One And Only Power In Germany.

Political Parties Has Nothing To Do With Religious Problems, As Long As These Are Not Alien To The Nation, Undermining The Morals And Ethics Of The Race; Just As Religion Cannot Be Amalgamated With The Scheming Of Political Parties.

I Am Convinced That I Am Acting As The Agent Of Our Almighty Creator. By Fighting The Jews, I Am Doing The Lord's Work.

Where Napoleon Failed, I Shall Succeed, I Shall Land On The Shores Of Britain.

Faith Is Harder To Shake Than Knowledge, Love Succumbs Less To Change Than Respect, Hate Is More Enduring Than Aversion, And The Impetus To The Mightiest Upheavals On This Earth Has At All Times Consisted Less In A Scientific Knowledge Dominating The Masses Than In A Fanaticism Which Inspired Them And Sometimes In A Hysteria Which Drove Them Forward.

The More Modest Its Intellectual Ballast, The More Exclusively It Takes Into Consideration The Emotions Of The Masses, The More Effective [propaganda] Will Be.

Nature Knows No Political Boundaries. She Puts Living Creatures On This Globe And Watches The Free Play Of Forces. She Then Confers The Master's Right On Her Favourite Child, The Strongest In Courage And Industry ... The Stronger Must Dominate And Not Blend With The Weaker, Thus Sacrificing His Own Greatness. Only The Born Weakling Can View This As Cruel.

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

Under The Guidance Of The Reich, Europe Would Speedily Have Become Unified. Once The Jewish Poison Had Been Eradicated, Unification Would Have Been An Easy Matter. France And Italy, Each Defeated In Turn At An Interval Of A Few Months By The Two Germanic Powers, Would Have Been Well Out Of It. Both Would Have Had To Renounce Their Inappropriate Aspirations To Greatness. At The Same Time They Would Have Had To Renounce Their Pretensions In North Africa And The Near East; And That Would Have Allowed Europe To Pursue A Bold Policy Of Friendship Towards Islam.

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.

And The Founder Of Christianity Made No Secret Indeed Of His Estimation Of The Jewish People. When He Found It Necessary, He Drove Those Enemies Of The Human Race Out Of The Temple Of God.

The National Government...will Maintain And Defend The Foundations On Which The Power Of Our Nation Rests. It Will Offer Strong Protection To Christianity As The Very Basis Of Our Collective Morality.

Peoples Which Bastardize Themselves, Or Let Themselves Be Bastardized, Sin Against The Will Of Eternal Providence.

For It Was By The Will Of God That Men Were Made Of A Certain Bodily Shape, Were Given Their Natures And Their Faculties. Whoever Destroys His Work Wages War Against God's Creation And God's Will.

They [german Princes] Made A Pact With The Devil And Landed In Hell.

Czechoslovakia Has Ceased To Exist.

Due To His Own Original Special Nature, The Jew Cannot Possess A Religious Institution, If For No Other Reason Because He Lacks Idealism In Any Form, And Hence Belief In A Hereafter Is Absolutely Foreign To Him. And A Religion In The Aryan Sense Cannot Be Imagined Which Lacks The Conviction Of Survival After Death In Some Form. Indeed, The Talmud Is Not A Book To Prepare A Man For The Hereafter, But Only For A Practical And Profitable Life In This World.

I Will Not Wage War Against Women And Children! I Have Instructed My Air Force To Limit Their Attacks To Military Objectives. However, If The Enemy Should Conclude From This That He Might Get Away With Waging War In A Different Manner He Will Receive An Answer That He'll Be Knocked Out Of His Wits!

Obstacles Do Not Exist To Be Surrendered To, But Only To Be Broken.

That This Is Possible May Not Be Denied In A World Where Hundreds And Hundreds Of Thousands Of People Voluntarily Submit To Celibacy, Obligated And Bound By Nothing Except The Injunction Of The Church. Should The Same Renunciation Not Be Possible If This Injunction Is Replaced By The Admonition Finally To Put An End To The Constant And Continuous Original Sin Of Racial Poisoning, And To Give The Almighty Creator Beings Such As He Himself Created?

Something Therefore Always Remains And Sticks From The Most Imprudent Of Lies, A Fact Which All Bodies And Individuals Concerned In The Art Of Lying In This World Know Only Too Well, And Therefore They Stop At Nothing To Achieve This End.

I Was Not In Agreement With The Sharp Anti-semitic Tone, But From Time To Time I Read Arguments Which Gave Me Some Food For Thought. At All Events, These Occasions Slowly Made Me Acquainted With The Man And The Movement, Which In Those Days Guided Vienna's Destinies: Dr. Karl Lueger And The Christian Social Party.

I Am Now As Before A Catholic And Will Always Remain So.

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)

Today I Will Once More Be A Prophet. If The International Jewish Financiers, Inside And Outside Europe, Succeed In Plunging The Nations Once More Into A World War, Then The Result Will Not Be The Bolshevisation Of The Earth, And Thus The Victory Of Jewry, But The Annihilation Of The Jewish Race In Europe!

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.

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.

National Socialism Will Use Its Own Revolution For Establishing Of A New World Order.

It Would Be Easier For The Devil To Go To Church And Cross Himself With Holy Water Than For These People To Comprehend The Ideas Which Are Accepted Facts To Us Today.

I Am Beginning With The Young. We Older Ones Are Used Up. Yes, We Are Old Already. We Are Rotten To The Marrow. We Have No Unrestrained Instincts Left. We Are Cowardly And Sentimental. We Are Bearing The Burden Of A Humiliating Past, And Have In Our Blood The Dull Recollection Of Serfdom And Servility. But My Magnificent Youngsters! Are There Finer Ones Anywhere In The World? Look At These Young Men And Boys! What Material! With Them, I Can Make A New World.

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

The Fact That, With Time, This League [of Nations]-which Was Presumably Designed By Its Founders To Exist For All Eternity-cannot Be Coupled With A Treaty The Short Term Of Which Is Inherent In Its Own Weaknesses And Impracticabilities, Is A Point Which Can Perhaps Be Contested By Today's Interested Parties, But Which Will One Day Be Deemed A Matter Of Course In History.

First, Therefore, [the Jew] Goes About Making Up To The People For His Previous Sins Against Them. He Begins His Career As The 'benefactor' Of Mankind. Since His New Benevolence Has A Practical Foundation, He Cannot Very Well Adhere To The Old Biblical Recommendation, That The Left Hand Should Not Know What The Right Hand Giveth.

A Man Who Has No Sense Of History Is Like A Man Who Has No Ears Or No Eyes.

Every Healthy Völk Sees The Right To Expansion Of Its Living Space As Something Natural.

No More Than A Famous Master Can Be Replaced And Another Take Over The Completion Of The Half-finished Painting He Has Left Behind Can The Great Poet And Thinker, The Great Statesman And The Great Soldier, Be Replaced. For Their Activity Lies Always In The Province Of Art. It Is Not Mechanically Trained But Inborn By God's Grace.

Christianity Is The Worst Of The Regressions That Mankind Can Ever Have Undergone, And It's The Jew Who, Thanks To This Diabolic Invention, Has Thrown Him Back Fifteen Centuries. The Only Thing That Would Be Still Worse Would Be Victory For The Jew Through Bolshevism. If Bolshevism Triumphed, Mankind Would Lose The Gift Of Laughter And Joy. It Would Become Merely A Shapeless Mass, Doomed To Grayness And Despair.

When I Came To Power, I Did Not Want The Concentration Camps To Become Old Age Pensioners Homes, But Instruments Of Terror.

It Is Necessary That I Should Die For My People; But My Spirit Will Rise From The Grave And The Whole World Will Know That I Was Right.

Words Build Bridges Into Unexplored Regions.

The National Socialist State Refuses To Admit Female Labour In Factories Merely Because Such Labour Is Cheap. There Is, Of Course, A Certain Amount Of Industrial Work Which Can Only Be Performed By Women, But An Essential Condition Is That This Sort Of Work Should Not Be Injurious To Health.

Germany Is Prepared To Agree To Any Solemn Pact Of Non-aggression, Because She Does Not Think Of Attacking But Only Acquiring Security.

Thus, Protestantism Will Always Stand Up For The Advancement Of All Germans As Such, As Long As Matters Of Inner Purity Or National Deepening As Well As German Freedom Are Involved, Since All These Things Have A Firm Foundation In Its Own Being; But It Combats With The Greatest Hostility Any Attempt To Rescue The Nation From The Embrace Of Its Most Mortal Enemy, Since Its Attitude Toward The Jews Just Happens To Be More Or Less Dogmatically Established.

I Shall Not Rest Until Every German Sees That It Is A Shameful Thing To Be A Lawyer.

By Educating The Young Generation Along The Right Lines, The People's State Will Have To See To It That A Generation Of Mankind Is Formed Which Will Be Adequate To This Supreme Combat That Will Decide The Destinies Of The World.

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.

The National Socialist Movement Has Wrought This Miracle. If Almighty God Granted Success To This Work, Then The Party Was His Instrument.

Either We Are A Sovereign State, Or We Are Not! As Long As We Are Not, We Have No Business In A Community Of Sovereign States.

The Principle Applies Here, Help Yourselves And Almighty God Will Not Deny You His Assistance.

I Have Never Liked France Or The French, And I Have Never Stopped Saying So. (15th February 1945)

National Socialism Is The Determination To Create A New Man. There Will No Longer Exist Any Individual Arbitrary Will, Nor Realms In Which The Individual Belongs To Himself. The Time Of Happiness As A Private Matter Is Over.

It Is A Tragedy Of The Germanic World That Jesus Was Judaised, Distorted, Falsified; And An Alien Asiatic Spirit Was Forced Upon Us. That Is A Crime We Must Repair.

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)

Churchill Is The Very Type Of A Corrupt Journalist. There Is Not A Worse Prostitute In Politics. He Himself Has Written That It'sunimaginable What Can Be Done In War With The Help Of Lies. He's An Utterly Amoral Repulsive Creature. I'm Convinced That He Has His Place Of Refuge Ready Beyond The Atlantic. He Obviously Won't Seek Sanctuary In Canada. In Canada He'd Be Beaten Up. He'll Go To His Friends The Yankees. As Soon As This Damnable Winter Is Over, We'll Remedy All That.

It Is Thus Necessary That The Individual Should Finally Come To Realize That His Own Ego Is Of No Importance In Comparison With The Existence Of The Nation, That The Position Of The Individual Is Conditioned Solely By The Interests Of The Nation As A Whole.

You Only Have To Kick In The Door And The Whole Rotten Structure Will Come Crashing Down.

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.

The Fact That The Vatican Is Concluding A Treaty With The New Germany Means The Acknowledgement Of The National Socialist State By The Catholic Church. This Treaty Shows The Whole World Clearly And Unequivocally That The Assertion That National Socialism Is Hostile To Religion Is A Lie.

I Know The Horrors Of War: No Gains Can Compensate For The Losses It Brings.

The [nazi Party] Should Not Become A Constable Of Public Opinion, But Must Dominate It. It Must Not Become A Servant Of The Masses, But Their Master!

...our Cities Of The Present Lack The Outstanding Symbol Of National Community Which, We Must Therefore Not Be Surprised To Find, Sees No Symbol Of Itself In The Cities. The Inevitable Result Is A Desolation Whose Practical Effect Is The Total Indifference Of The Big-city Dweller To The Destiny Of His City.

Our Strength Lies In Our Intensive Attacks And Our Barbarity...after All, Who Today Remembers The Genocide Of The Armenians?

The Victor Will Never Be Asked If He Told The Truth.

Our Thoughts And Actions Must In No Way Be Determined By The Approval Or Disapproval Of Our Time, But By The Binding Obligation To A Truth Which We Have Recognized.

In The Spanish People There Is A Mixture Of Gothic, Frankish And Moorish Blood. One Can Speak Of The Spaniard As One Would Speak Of A Brave Anarchist. The Arabian Epoch-the Arabs Look Down On The Turks As They Do On Dogs-was The Most Cultured, The Most Intellectual And In Every Way Best And Happiest Epoch In Spanish History. It Was Followed By The Period Of The Persecutions With Its Unceasing Atrocities.

Whenever I Think Of This Attack, My Stomach Turns Over.
