More quotes by Alfred Jodl
Hitler [had an] excess of imagination, which very frequently foresaw what would happen but also very often went astray.
Alfred Jodl
It is tragic that the Fuehrer should have the whole nation behind him with the single exception of the Army generals. In my opinion it is only by action that they can now atone for their faults of lack of character and discipline.
Alfred Jodl
The Pact of Munich is signed. Czechoslovakia as a power is out.
Alfred Jodl
The indictment knocked me on the head. First of all, I hand no idea at all about 90 per cent of the accusations in it. The crimes are horrible beyond belief, if they are true. Secondly, I don't see how they can fail to recognize a soldier's obligation to obey orders. That's the code I've live by all my life.
Alfred Jodl
Death - by hanging! - that, at least, I did not deserve. The death part - all right, somebody has to stand for the responsibility. But that - that I did not deserve!
Alfred Jodl
Yes, I'm very normal, everything is okay, I won't become a psychiatric case.
Alfred Jodl
To this very day, I do not know what he (Hitler) thought or knew or really wanted. I only knew my own thoughts and suspicions.
Alfred Jodl
