I'm so despondent about everything. Everything I try goes totally wrong. There's no escape from this hole here. I feel drained. So far, I still haven't found a real purpose in life. Sometimes, I'm afraid to get out of bed in the morning. There's nothing to get up for.

Man is and remains an animal.Here a beast of prey, there a housepet, but always an animal.
Joseph Goebbels

The fatherland shall one day be like this: We're not all equal, but we're all brothers.
Joseph Goebbels
Image
It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient repetition and a psychological understanding of the people concerned that a square is in fact a circle. They are mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas and disguise.
Joseph Goebbels
Image
The Jew is contrary to our being. ... He desecrated our people, spit on our ideals, paralyzed the strength of the nation, made our customs rotten, and polluted the morale.
Joseph Goebbels
Image
Crisis is the path to happiness. Decay and disintegration do not spell doom, but ascent and beginning. The powerful forces of a new creation operate in the hush beyond the noise of the day.
Joseph Goebbels
Image
Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.
Joseph Goebbels
Image
That propaganda is good which leads to success, and that is bad which fails to achieve the desired result. It is not propaganda’s task to be intelligent, its task is to lead to success.
Joseph Goebbels
Image
Propaganda works best when those who are being manipulated are confident they are acting on their own free will.
Joseph Goebbels
