Image
Consequently, the tone, particularly that of the Viennese anti-Semitic press, seemed to me unworthy of the cultural tradition of a great nation.
Adolf Hitler
Image
The spark of a genius exists in the brain of the truly creative man from the hour of his birth. True genius is always inborn and never cultivated, let alone learned.
Adolf Hitler
Image
Peoples which bastardize themselves, or let themselves be bastardized, sin against the will of eternal Providence.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.

Image
In political matters feeling often decides more correctly than reason.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.

The truth is the best propaganda.
Adolf Hitler
Image
There must be no majority decisions, but only responsible persons, and the word 'council' must be restored to its original meaning. Surely every man will have advisers by his side, but the decision will be made by one man.

When You Are In The Light, Everything Follows You, But When You Enter Into The Dark, Even Your Own Shadow Doesn't Follow You.
Adolf Hitler
Image
We must, therefore, coolly and objectively adopt the standpoint that it can certainly not be the intention of Heaven to give one people fifty times as much land and soil in this world as another.
Adolf Hitler
Image
There arc no such things as desperate situations. Only desperate men.
Adolf Hitler
Image
Since I have fought against these Jewish-Soviet ideas in Germany, since I have conquered and stamped out this peril, I fancy that I possess a better comprehension of its character than do these men who have only to deal with it in the field of literature.

I do not see why man should not be as cruel as nature
Adolf Hitler
Image
I saw my enemies in Munich, and they are worms.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.

He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.

[This is the] very first condition which has to be fulfilled in every kind of propaganda: a systematically one-sided attitude towards every problem that has to be dealt with.
