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 grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down.
Adolf Hitler
Image
The conviction of the justification of using even the most brutal weapons is always dependent on the presence of a fanatical belief in the necessity of the victory of a revolutionary new order on this globe.

I will reflect a thousand times over before I allow the German Volk to become entangled in agreements whose consequences are not readily evident.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.

God helps only those who are prepared and determined to help themselves.
