More quotes by William Joyce
Life is made up of danger and heartbreak, I laugh in the face of both!
William Joyce
The first book I ever wrote was in fourth grade and it was called 'Billy's Booger.' It was an autobiographical piece about a kid who was really bad at math.
William Joyce
Apart from my absolute belief in National Socialism and my conviction of Hitler's superhuman heroism, I had always been attracted to Germany.
William Joyce
I've always liked getting away with just a little bit of what you're not supposed to. Like my first book, Billy's Booger, got me in trouble with the principal's office.
William Joyce
you know, a daydream properly utilized can be the most powerful force in the universe. One need only dream of freedom to begin to break the spell of enslavement.
William Joyce
But if you really love to write and you really love to tell stories and you really love to draw, you just have to keep doing it no matter what anybody says.
William Joyce
If war breaks out, I will fight for Hitler since such a war would be against Jewry.
William Joyce
I have known lots of adults who enjoyed similar enthusiasms as a kid and weren't encouraged and then didn't go anywhere with it and so they're unhappy in their jobs as adults.
William Joyce
I know that I have been denounced as a traitor and I resent the accusation, as I conceive myself to have been guilty of no underhand or deceitful act against Britain, although I am also able to understand the resentment that my broadcasts have, in many quarters, aroused.
William Joyce
The people of England will curse themselves for having preferred ruin from Churchill to peace from Hitler.
William Joyce
But evil is a cunning force. It can find the weakness in any man, even the bravest. [...] It only takes a single weak moment to let evil in.
William Joyce
So if you're a robot and you're living on this planet, you can do things that you can't do in real life - things that you wished you could do: like fly like have a car that flies like have furniture that is alive.
William Joyce
You know, I hate to give advice because my life has been so odd that almost nothing that's happened to me can apply.
William Joyce
The possibilities were endless. Battles would be fought. Wonders revealed. Many journeys. Many lands. Many joys. Many sorrows. But stories all...
William Joyce
I would gladly say 'Heil Hitler!' and at once part company with him, realizing what a pitiable insult it is to such a great man to try to flatter him with such an imitation which he has always disdained. His way is for Germany, ours is for Britain let us tread our paths with mutual respect, which is rarely increased by borrowing.
William Joyce
Chuchill has renounced all British interests in Europe and those of his people who are not blind now realise that the pretext for this war was far removed from the cause of it, namely, the subservience of the so-called democratic politicians to their Jewish masters.
William Joyce
In death as in life, I defy the Jews who caused this last war [WW II], and I defy the powers of darkness which they represent. I am proud to die for my ideals, and I am sorry for the sons of Britain who have died without knowing why.
William Joyce
I don't regard Jews as a class. I regard them as a privileged misfortune.
William Joyce
I did not win and in fact I was called into the principal's office for a consultation with my parents. But that was the beginning of my literary career.
William Joyce
His life was a book of his own writing, one orderly page after another.
