If the war is lost, the nation will also perish. This fate
is inevitable. There is no necessity to take into consideration
the basis which the people will need to continue a most primitive
existence. On the contrary, it will be better to destroy things
ourselves because this nation will have proved to be the weaker
one and the future will belong solely to the stronger eastern
nation [Russia]. Besides, those who remain after the battle
are only the inferior ones, for the good ones have been killed.
Adolf Hitler
On his infamous March 1945 'scorched earth'
directive that Germany be made one vast wasteland, explaining
it to Albert Speer |
We will not capitulate - no, never! We may be destroyed, but
if we are, we shall drag a world with us - a world in flames.
Adolf Hitler |
The seed has been sown that will grow one day . . . to the
glorious rebirth of the National Socialist movement of a truly
united nation.
Adolf Hitler
From Hitler's last will and testament,
dictated to his secretary Traudl Junge in his Berlin Führerbunker
on 29th April 1945, the day he and Eva Braun married - both
committed suicide the next day. |
It is not truth that matters, but victory.
Adolf Hitler |
What luck for rulers, that men do not think.
Adolf Hitler |
The doom of a nation can be averted only by a storm of flowing
passion, but only those who are passionate themselves can arouse
passion in others.
Adolf Hitler |
It must be thoroughly understood that the lost land will never
be won back by solemn appeals to the God, nor by hopes in any
League of Nations, but only by the force of arms.
Adolf Hitler |
How to achieve the moral breakdown of the enemy before the
war has started -- that is the problem that interests me. Whoever
has experienced war at the front will want to refrain from all
avoidable bloodshed.
Adolf Hitler |
A single blow must destroy the enemy... without regard of
losses... a gigantic all-destroying blow.
Adolf Hitler |
Strength lies not in defense but in attack.
Adolf Hitler |
