If Artists Do See Fields Blue They Are Deranged, And Should Go To An Asylum. If They Only Pretend To See Them Blue, They Are Criminals And Should Go To Prison.

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.

We Were Convinced That The People Need And Require This Faith. We Have Therefore Undertaken The Fight Against The Atheistic Movement, And That Not Merely With A Few Theoretical Declarations; We Have Stamped It Out.

He Who Would Live Must Fight. He Who Doesn't Wish To Fight In This World, Where Permanent Struggle Is The Law Of Life, Has Not The Right To Exist.

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.

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

Imbued With The Desire To Secure For The German People The Great Religious, Moral, And Cultural Values Rooted In The Two Christian Confessions, We Have Abolished The Political Organizations But Strengthened The Religious Institutions.

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.

But It Would Be Absolutely Mistaken To Regard A Wealth Of Theoretical Knowledge As Characteristic Proof For The Qualities And Abilities Of A Leader.

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.

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 More The Linguistic Babel Corroded And Disorganized Parliament, The Closer Drew The Inevitable Hour Of The Disintegration Of This Babylonian Empire, And With It The Hour Of Freedom For My German-austrian People.

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.

...the Existence And Increase Of Our Race And Nation, The Sustenance Of Its Children And The Purity Of Its Blood, The Freedom And Independence Of The Fatherland, And The Nation's Ability To Fulfill The Mission Appointed To It By The Creator Of The Universe.

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.

It Is Over, The Reich Walls Have Collapsed, My Generals Have Betrayed Me And My Army Refuses To Fight, This Is The Herr Doernitz! I Only Hope You Can Turn This Around.

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.

Even Today I Am Not Ashamed To Say That, Overpowered By Stormy Enthusiasm, I Fell Down On My Knees And Thanked Heaven From An Overflowing Heart For Granting Me The Good Fortune Of Being Permitted To Live At This Time.

The Best Characterization Is Provided By The Product Of This Religious Education, The Jew Himself. His Life Is Only Of This World, And His Spirit Is Inwardly As Alien To True Christianity As His Nature Two Thousand Years Previous Was To The Great Founder Of The New Doctrine.

More Than Once I Was Tormented By The Thought That If Providence Had Put Me In The Place Of The Incapable Of Criminal Incompetents Or Scoundrels In Our Propaganda Service, Our Battle With Destiny Would Have Taken A Different Turn.

The Heaviest Blow That Ever Struck Humanity Was The Coming Of Christianity. Bolshevism Is Christianity's Illegitimate Child. Both Are Inventions Of The Jew.

I Intend To Set Up A Thousand-year Reich And Anyone Who Supports Me In This Battle Is A Fellow-fighter For A Unique Spiritual-i Would Say Divine-creation... Rudolf Hess, My Assistant Of Many Years Standing, Would Tell You: If We Have Such A Leader, God Is With Us.

The Fact That The Catholic Church Has Come To An Agreement With Fascist Italy ... Proves Beyond Doubt That The Fascist World Of Ideas Is Closer To Christianity Than Those Of Jewish Liberalism Or Even Atheistic Marxism.

In Order To Persuade Britain To Pack Up, To Compel Her To Make Peace, It Was Essential To Rob Her Of Her Hope Of Being Able Still To Confront Us, On The Continent Itself, With An Adversary Of A Stature Equal To Our Own.

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 More Abstractly Correct And Hence Powerful This Idea Will Be, The More Impossible Remains Its Complete Fulfillment As Long As It Continues To Depend On Human Beings... If This Were Not So, The Founders Of Religion Could Not Be Counted Among The Greatest Men Of This Earth... In Its Workings, Even The Religion Of Love Is Only The Weak Reflection Of The Will Of Its Exalted Founder; Its Significance, However, Lies In The Direction Which It Attempted To Give To A Universal Human Development Of Culture, Ethics, And Morality.

The Young [nazi] Movement Is In Its Nature And Inner Organization Anti-parliamentarian; That Is, It Rejects... A Principle Of Majority Rule In Which The Leader Is Degraded To The Level Of Mere Executant Of Other People's Wills And Opinion.

The Big Lie Is A Major Untruth Uttered Frequently By Leaders As A Means Of Duping And Controlling The Constituency.

If I Made Peace With Russia Today, I'd Only Attack Her Again Tomorrow. I Just Couldn't Help Myself.

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.

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.

Mankind Has Grown Strong In Eternal Struggles And It Will Only Perish Through Eternal Peace.

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.

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

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)

Not As Tyrants Have We Come, But As Liberators.

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

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

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.

Man Has Discovered In Nature The Wonderful Notion Of That All-mighty Being Whose Law He Worships. Fundamentally In Everyone There Is The Feeling For This All-mighty, Which We Call God (that Is To Say, The Dominion Of Natural Laws Throughout The Whole Universe).

There Is Only One Right In The World And That Right Is One's Own Strength.

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.

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.

It [christian Social Party] Recognized The Value Of Large-scale Propaganda And Was A Virtuoso In Influencing The Psychological Instincts Of The Broad Masses Of Its Adherents.

I Go The Way That Providence Dictates With The Assurance Of A Sleepwalker.

Sporting Chivalrous Contest Helps Knit The Bonds Of Peace Between Nations. Therefore May The Olympic Flame Never Expire.

Of Course, The Latter Made No Secret Of His Attitude Toward The Jewish People, And When Necessary He Even Took The Whip To Drive From The Temple Of The Lord This Adversary Of All Humanity, Who Then As Always Saw In Religion Nothing But An Instrument For His Business Existence. In Return, Christ Was Nailed To The Cross, While Our Present-day Party Christians Debase Themselves To Begging For Jewish Votes At Elections And Later Try To Arrange Political Swindles With Atheistic Jewish Parties- And This Against Their Own Nation.

We National Socialists Must Hold Unflinchingly To Our Aim In Foreign Policy, Namely To Secure For The German People The Land And Soil To Which They Are Entitles On This Earth. And This Action Is The Only One Which, Before God And Or German Posterity, Would Make Any Sacrifice Of Blood Seem Justified: Before God, Since We Have Been Put On This Earth With The Mission Of Eternal Struggle For Our Daily Bread.

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. For Instance, A Slogan Must Be Presented From Different Angles, But The End Of All Remarks Must Always And Immutably Be The Slogan Itself. Only In This Way Can The Propaganda Have A Unified And Complete Effect.

Propaganda Must Not Serve The Truth, Especially As It Might Bring Out Something Favorable For The Opponent.

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?

In The Course Of Carrying Through Our Program For Which We Have Calculated Four Years, Two And One-quarter Million Out Of Six Million Unemployed Have Already Received Employment Again Within A Period Of Eight Short Months.

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!

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.

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.

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.

In Vowing Ourselves To One Another, We Are Entitled To Stand Before The Almighty And Ask Him For His Grace And His Blessing.

Those Who Want To Live, Let Them Fight, And Those Who Do Not Want To Fight In This World Of Eternal Struggle Do Not Deserve To Live.

Our German Language Has A Word Which In A Magnificent Way Denotes Conduct Based On This Spirit: Doing One's Duty [pflichterfüllung]-which Means Serving The Community Instead Of Contenting Oneself. We Have A Word For The Basic Disposition Which Underlies Conduct Of This Kind In Contrast To Egoism And Selfishness-idealism. By 'idealism' We Mean Only The Ability Of The Individual To Sacrifice Himself For The Whole, For His Fellow Men.

Money Glitters, Beauty Sparkles, And Intelligence Shines.

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.

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

How To Achieve The Moral Breakdown Of The Enemy Before The War Has Started - That Is The Problem That Interests Me. Whoever Has Experienced War At The Front Will Want To Refrain From All Avoidable Bloodshed.

Perhaps We Are Only Forerunners. Twenty Or Even A Hundred Years May Pass Before The National Socialist Idea Is Victorious; Those Who Believe In The Ideal Today May Die: But What Is A Man In The Development Of A People, Of Mankind.

Soldiers Of The Reich! This Day, You Are To Take Part In An Offensive Of Such Importance That The Whole Future Of The War May Depend On Its Outcome.

The Greatness Of Every Mighty Organization Embodying An Idea In This World Lies In The Religious Fanaticism And Intolerance With Which, Fanatically Convinced Of Its Own Right, It Intolerantly Imposes Its Will Against All Others.

The Doom Of A Nation Can Be Averted Only By A Storm Of Flowing Passion, But Only Those Who Are Passionate Themselves Can Arouse Passion In Others.

Germany Has Concluded A Non-aggression Pact With Poland. We Shall Adhere To It Unconditionally. We Recognize Poland As The Home Of A Great And Nationally Conscious People.

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.

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.

All Upright Germans Will Be National Socialists, But Only The Best National Socialists Will Be Party Members!

Every Year A Thousand Kilometers Of Motor-roads Will Be Opened Until The Greatest Work In The History Of Mankind Is Completed.

But If Out Of Smugness, Or Even Cowardice, This Battle Is Not Fought To Its End, Then Take A Look At The Peoples Five Hundred Years From Now. I Think You Will Find But Few Images Of God, Unless You Want To Profane The Almighty.

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.

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.

I Demand That Every Storm Troop Leader, Just As Every Political Leader, Should Be Conscious Of The Fact That His Behavior And Conduct Must Be Exemplary. . . . I Wish Every Mother To Give Her Son To The Party Without Fearing That He May Be Ruined Morally. . . . Storm Troop Leaders Who Behave Unworthily In Public Are To Be Mercilessly Removed.

Czechoslovakia Provided Soviet Russia With Landing Fields For Aircraft, Thereby Increasing The Threat Against Germany.

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.

I Am Liberating Man From The Degrading Chimera Known As `conscience'.

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.

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

We Can Safely Make One Prophecy: Whatever The Outcome Of This War, The British Empire Is At An End. It Has Been Mortally Wounded. The Future Of The British People Is To Die Of Hunger And Tuberculosis In Their Cursed Island.

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

I Am Convinced That 1941 Will Be The Crucial Year Of A Great New Order In Europe. The World Shall Open Up For Everyone. Privileges For Individuals, The Tyranny Of Certain Nations And Their Financial Rulers Shall Fall. And Last Of All This Year Will Help To Provide The Foundations Of A Real Understanding Among Peoples, And With It The Certainty Of Conciliation Among Nations. . . . Those Nations Who Are Still Opposed To Us Will Some Day Recognize The Greater Enemy Within. Then They Will Join Us In A Combined Front, A Front Against Jewish Exploitation And Racial Degeneration.

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.

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

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

The Sportive, Knightly Battle Awakens The Best Human Characteristics. It Doesn't Separate, But Unites The Combatants In Understanding And Respect. He Also Helps To Connect The Countries In The Spirit Of Peace. That's Why The Olympic Flame Should Never Die.

What We Suffer From Today Is An Excess Of Education.

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

Life Never Forgives Weaknesses.

The National Government Will Regard It As Its First And Foremost Duty To Revive In The Nation The Spirit Of Unity And Cooperation. It Will Preserve And Defend Those Basic Principles On Which Our Nation Has Been Built. It Regards Christianity As The Foundation Of Our National Morality, And The Family As The Basis Of National Life.

The Personification Of The Devil As The Symbol Of All Evil Assumes The Living Shape Of The Jew.

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

People Are More Likely To Believe A Big Lie Than A Small One.

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.

Knowledge Above The Average Can Be Crammed Into The Average Man, But It Remains Dead, And In The Last Analysis Sterile Knowledge. The Result Is A Man Who May Be A Living Dictionary But Nevertheless Falls Down Miserably In All Special Situations And Decisive Moments In Life.

I Believe In Providence And I Believe Providence To Be Just. Therefore I Believe That Providence Always Rewards The Strong, The Industrious, And The Upright.

After 15 Years Of Work I Have Achieved, As A Common German Soldier And Merely With My Fanatical Willpower, The Unity Of The German Nation, And Have Freed It From The Death Sentence Of Versailles.

The Result Of The Revolution In Germany Has Been To Establish A Democracy In The Best Sense Of The Word. We Are Steering Towards An Order Of Things Guaranteeing A Process Of A Natural And Reasonable Selection In The Domain Of Political Leadership, Thanks To Which That Leadership Will Be Entrusted To The Most Competent, Irrespective Of Their Descent, Name Or Fortune. The Memorable Words Of The Great Corsican That Every Soldier Carries A Field Marshal's Baton In His Knapsack, Will Find Its Political Complement In Germany.

Heaven Will Smile On Us Again.

What Luck, For Governments, That The People Are Stupid!

Life Does Not Forgive Weakness.

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.

The Greater The Lie, The Greater The Chance That It Will Be Believed.

Even A Superficial Glance Is Sufficient To Show That All The Innumerable Forms In Which The Life-urge Of Nature Manifests Itself Are Subject To A Fundamental Law - One May Call It An Iron Law Of Nature - Which Compels The Various Species To Keep Within The Definite Limits Of Their Own Life-forms When Propagating And Multiplying Their Kind.

For I Must Not Measure The Speech Of A Statesman To His People By The Impression Which It Leaves In A University Professor, But By The Effect It Exerts On The People. And This Alone Gives The Standard For The Speaker's Genius.

University Professors

It Is Not The State That Orders Us; But It Is We Who Order The State!

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

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.

Only In The Struggle Between Two Philosophies Can The Weapon Of Brutal Force, Persistently And Ruthlessly Applied, Lead To A Decision For The Side It Supports.

The Greatness Of Christianity Did Not Lie In Attempted Negotiations For Compromise With Any Similar Philosophical Opinions In The Ancient World, But In Its Inexorable Fanaticism In Preaching And Fighting For Its Own Doctrine.

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

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.

A People Of Scholars, If They Are Physically Degenerate, Weak-willed And Cowardly Pacifists, Will Not Storm The Heavens, Indeed, They Will Not Be Able To Safeguard Their Existence On This Earth.

When An Opponent Declares, "i Will Not Come Over To Your Side," I Calmly Say, "your Child Belongs To Us Already...what Are You? You Will Pass On. Your Descendants, However, Now Stand In The New Camp. In A Short Time They Will Know Nothing Else But This New Community."

The Size Of The Lie Is A Definite Factor In Causing It To Be Believed, For The Vast Masses Of The Nation Are In The Depths Of Their Hearts More Easily Deceived Than They Are Consciously And Intentionally Bad. The Primitive Simplicity Of Their Minds Renders Them A More Easy Prey To A Big Lie Than A Small One, For They Themselves Often Tell Little Lies But Would Be Ashamed To Tell A Big One.

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

The Western Democracy Of Today Is The Forerunner Of Marxism Which Without It Would Not Be Thinkable. It Provides This World Plague With The Culture In Which Its Germs Can Spread.

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.

But Christianity Is An Invention Of Sick Brains: One Could Imagine Nothing More Senseless, Nor Any More Indecent Way Of Turning The Idea Of The Godhead Into A Mockery.

Our National Policies Will Not Be Revoked Or Modified, Even For Scientists. If The Dismissal Of Jewish Scientists Means The Annihilation Of Contemporary German Science, Then We Shall Do Without Science For A Few Years.

Paris Must Either Not Fall Into The Hands Of The Enemy Or The Enemy Must Find It Only A Wasteland.

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.

What Luck For Rulers That Men Do Not Think.

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.

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

[propaganda] Does Not Have Multiple Shadings; It Has A Positive And A Negative; Love Or Hate, Right Or Wrong, Truth Or Lie, Never Half This Way And Half That Way.

The Beginning Of Every War Is Like Opening The Door Into A Dark Room. One Never Knows What Is Hidden In The Darkness.

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.

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

The Goal Of Female Education Must Invariably Be The Future Mother.

Everything On This Earth Can Be Made Into Something Better. Every Defeat May Be Made The Foundation Of A Future Victory. Every Lost War May Be The Cause Of A Later Resurgence. Every Visitation Of Distress Can Give A New Impetus To Human Energy. And Out Of Every Oppression Those Forces Can Develop Which Bring About A New Rebirth.

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.

I Follow My Course With The Precision And Security Of A Sleepwalker.

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.

For The Sake Of Historical Truth I Must Verify That Only The Greeks, Of All The Adversaries Who Confronted Us, Fought With Bold Courage And Highest Disregard Of Death.

Any Violence Which Does Not Spring From A Spiritual Base, Will Be Wavering And Uncertain. It Lacks The Stability Which Can Only Rest In A Fanatical Outlook.

The Most Foolish Mistake We Could Possibly Make Would Be To Allow The Subjugated Races To Possess Arms.

Democracy, The Deceitful Theory That The Jew Would Insinuate - Namely, That Theory That All Men Are Created Equal.

Czechoslovakia Has Ceased To Exist.

Historically Speaking, The Christian Religion Is Nothing But A Jewish Sect... After The Destruction Of Judaism, The Extinction Of Christian Slave Morals Must Follow Logically... Ah, The God Of The Deserts, That Crazed, Stupid, Vengeful Asiatic Despot With His Power To Make Laws!

When I Was A Worker I Busied Myself With Socialist Or, If You Like, Marxist Literature.

Night Gangsters! For This Crime I Will Exact A Thousand Fold Revenge!

Providence Has Ordained That I Should Be The Greatest Liberator Of Humanity. I Am Freeing Man From The Restraints Of An Intelligence That Has Taken Charge, From The Dirty And Degrading Self-mortification Of A False Vision Called Conscience And Morality, And From The Demands Of A Freedom And Independence Which Only A Very Few Can Bear.

The Leader Of Genius Must Have The Ability To Make Different Opponents Appear As If They Belonged To One Category.

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!

Protestantism As Such Is A Better Defender Of The Interests Of Germanism, In So Far As This Is Grounded In Its Genesis And Later Tradition; It Fails, However, In The Moment When This Defense Of National Interests Must Take Place In A Province Which Is Either Absent From The General Line Of Its Ideological World And Traditional Development, Or Is For Some Reason Rejected.

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

In Late Marriage Alone Lies The Compulsion To Retain An Institution Which, Twist And Turn As You Like, Is And Remains A Disgrace To Humanity, An Institution Which Is Damned Ill-suited To A Being Who With His Usual Modesty Likes To Regard Himself As The 'image' Of God.

Nothing Falls Into A Man's Lap From Heaven. It Is From Labour That Life Grows.

The [national Socialist] Party...is Convinced That Our Nation Can Achieve Permanent Health Only From Within On The Basis Of The Principle: The Common Interest Before Self-interest.

A Woman Must Be A Cute, Cuddly, Naive Little Thing - Tender, Sweet, And Stupid.

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.

I Am A German Nationalist, That Means I Am Openly Committed To My Volkstrum. All Of My Thoughts And Actions Belong To It. I Am A Socialist. I See Before Me No Class Or Rank, But Rather A Community Of People Who Are Connected By Blood, United By Language, And Subject To The Same Collective Fate.

I Have No Further Interest In The Czecho-slovakian State, That Is Guaranteed. We Want No Czechs

The Broad Masses Of A Population Are More Amenable To The Appeal Of Rhetoric Than To Any Other Force.

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.

Surrender Is Forbidden. Sixth Army Will Hold Their Positions To The Last Man And The Last Round And By Their Heroic Endurance Will Make An Unforgettable Contribution Toward The Establishment Of A Defensive Front And The Salvation Of The Western World.

If You Dont Like A Rule... Just Follow It.. Reach On The Top.. And Change The Rule

I Use Emotion For The Many And Reserve Reason For The Few.

Help Yourself, Then God Will Also Help You!

Success Is The Sole Earthly Judge Of Right And Wrong.

Congratulations

I Had Excellent Opportunity To Intoxicate Myself With The Solemn Splendor Of The Brilliant Church Festivals. As Was Only Natural, The Abbot Seemed To Me, As The Village Priest Had Once Seemed To My Father, The Highest And Most Desirable Ideal.

If We Consider How Greatly He Has Sinned Against The Masses In The Course Of The Centuries, How He Has Squeezed And Sucked The Blood Again And Again; If Furthermore, We Consider How The People Gradually Learned To Hate Him For This, And Ended Up By Regarding His Existence As Nothing But Punishment Of Heaven For The Other Peoples, We Can Understand How Hard This Shift Must Be For The Jew.

Consequently, The Tone, Particularly That Of The Viennese Anti-semitic Press, Seemed To Me Unworthy Of The Cultural Tradition Of A Great Nation.

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.

The Anti-semitism Of The New Movement Was Based On Religious Ideas Instead Of Racial Knowledge.

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

I Die With A Joyful Heart In The Knowledge Of Our Infinite Achievements And Of A Contribution Unique In The History That Bears My Name.

I Soon Realized That The Correct Use Of Propaganda Is A True Art Which Has Remained Practically Unknown To The Bourgeois Parties. Only The Christian- Social Movement, Especially In Lueger's Time Achieved A Certain Virtuosity On This Instrument, To Which It Owed Many Of Its Success.

For The Greatest Revolutionary Changes On This Earth Would Not Have Been Thinkable If Their Motive Force, Instead Of Fanatical, Yes, Hysterical Passion, Had Been Merely The Bourgeois Virtues Of Law And Order.

Dunkirk Has Fallen... With It Has Ended The Greatest Battle Of World History. Soldiers! My Confidence In You Knew No Bounds. You Have Not Disappointed Me.

...absolute Intolerance Also Provides Long Growth.

Neither I Nor Anyone Else In Germany Would Even Consider Placing Any "conditions" On Our Possible Return To The League Of Nations. Whether Or Not We Return To This Body Depends Exclusively Upon Whether We Can Belong To It As A Completely Equal Nation. This Is Not A "condition," But A Matter Of Course.

The World Will Not Help, The People Must Help Themselves. Its Own Strength Is The Source Of Life. That Strength The Almighty Has Given Us To Use; That In It And Through It, We May Wage The Battle Of Our Life The Others In The Past Years Have Not Had The Blessing Of The Almighty - Of Him Who In The Last Resort, Whatever Man May Do, Holds In His Hands The Final Decision. Lord God, Let Us Never Hesitate Or Play The Coward.

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

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!

Germany Will Never Break The Peace Of Its Own Accord.

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

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

Great Nations Do Not Succumb Through Lost Wars, But Rather Through Racial Decay And The Destruction Of Their Internal Order.

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.

When The German People Trusting To The Promises Made By President Wilson In His Fourteen Points, Laid Down Their Arms In November 1918, A Fateful Struggle Thereby Came To An End For Which Perhaps Individual Statesmen, But Certainly Not The Peoples Themselves Could Be Held Responsible. The German Nation Put Up Such An Heroic Fight Because It Was Sincere In Its Conviction That It Had Been Wrongfully Attacked And Was Therefore Justified In Fighting. The Peace Treaty Of Versailles Did Not Seem To Be For The Purpose Of Restoring Peace To Mankind, But Rather To Perpetuate Hatred.

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. But The State Should Retain Supervision And Each Property Owner Should Consider Himself Appointed By The State. It Is His Duty Not To Use His Property Against The Interests Of Others Among His Own People. This Is The Crucial Matter. The Third Reich Will Always Retain Its Right To Control The Owners Of Property.
