Quote

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.

Let us never forget the duty, which we have taken upon us
Adolf Hitler
Image
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?
Adolf Hitler
Image
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
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.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.
Adolf Hitler

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
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.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.
Adolf Hitler
Image
I am convinced that nothing will happen to me, for I know the greatness of the task for which Providence has chosen me.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.
Adolf Hitler
Image
The beginning of every war is like opening the door into a dark room. One never knows what is hidden in the darkness.
Adolf Hitler
Image
When Barbarossa commences, the world will hold its breath and make no comment.
Adolf Hitler
Image
I shall never come personally to terms with the Christian lie.
Adolf Hitler
Image
The primitive simplicity of their minds renders them a more easy prey to a big lie than a small one.
Adolf Hitler
Image
If I made peace with Russia today, I'd only attack her again tomorrow. I just couldn't help myself.
Adolf Hitler
Image
...we understand only the individual's capacity to make sacrifices for the community, for his fellow men.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.
Adolf Hitler
Image
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.
Adolf Hitler

The more modest its intellectual ballast, the more exclusively it takes into consideration the emotions of the masses, the more effective [propaganda] will be.
