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.”
