Quotes
- “To sum it all up, I must say that I regret nothing.”
- “Over the years I learned which hooks to use to catch which fish.”
- “Regret is something for little children.”
- “It was actually an achievement that was never matched before or since.”
- “Adolf Hitler may have been wrong all down the line, but one thing is beyond dispute: the man was able to work his way up from lance corporal in the German Army to Führer of a people of almost 80 million. … His success alone proved that I should subordinate myself to this man.”
- “My political sentiments inclined toward the left and emphasized the socialist aspects every bit as much as the nationalist ones.”

Otto Adolf Eichmann (* 19. März 1906 in Solingen; † 1. Juni 1962 in Ramla bei Tel Aviv, Israel) war ein deutscher SS-Obersturmbannführer. Während der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus und des Zweiten Weltkrieges leitete er in Berlin das „Eichmannreferat“. Diese zentrale Dienststelle des Reichssicherheitshauptamtes (RSHA, mit dem Kürzel IV B 4) organisierte die Verfolgung, Vertreibung und Deportation von Juden und war mitverantwortlich für die Ermordung von schätzungsweise sechs Millionen Menschen im weitgehend vom NS-Staat besetzten Europa. Im Mai 1960 wurde er von israelischen Agenten aus Argentinien entführt und nach Israel gebracht, wo ihm ein öffentlicher Prozess gemacht wurde. Er wurde zum Tode verurteilt und in der Nacht vom 31. Mai auf den 1. Juni 1962 durch Hängen hingerichtet.
