"Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way round, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise."; "Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live."; "The victor will never be asked if he told the truth."; "The very first essential for success is a perpetually constant and regular employment of violence."; "The leader of genius must have the ability to make different opponents appear as if they belonged to one category."; "The great strength of the totalitarian state is that it forces those who fear it to imitate it."; "The great masses of the people will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one."; "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."; "The day of individual happiness has passed."; "The broad masses of a population are more amenable to the appeal of rhetoric than to any other force."; "The art of leadership... consists in consolidating the attention of the people against a single adversary and taking care that nothing will split up that attention."; "Success is the sole earthly judge of right and wrong."; "Struggle is the father of all things. It is not by the principles of humanity that man lives or is able to preserve himself above the animal world, but solely by means of the most brutal struggle."; "Strength lies not in defence but in attack."; "Mankind has grown strong in eternal struggles and it will only perish through eternal peace."; "Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it."; "It is not truth that matters, but victory."; "It is always more difficult to fight against faith than against knowledge."; "If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed."; "If today I stand here as a revolutionary, it is as a revolutionary against the Revolution."; "I use emotion for the many and reserve reason for the few."; "I go the way that Providence dictates with the assurance of a sleepwalker."; "I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature."; "I believe today that my conduct is in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator."; "Humanitarianism is the expression of stupidity and cowardice."; "He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future."; "Hate is more lasting than dislike."; "Great liars are also great magicians."; "Germany will either be a world power or will not be at all."; "Generals think war should be waged like the tourneys of the Middle Ages. I have no use for knights; I need revolutionaries."; "Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future."; "By the skillful and sustained use of propaganda, one can make a people see even heaven as hell or an extremely wretched life as paradise."; "As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice."; "Anyone who sees and paints a sky green and fields blue ought to be sterilized."; "Any alliance whose purpose is not the intention to wage war is senseless and useless."; "All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach."; "All great movements are popular movements. They are the volcanic eruptions of human passions and emotions, stirred into activity by the ruthless Goddess of Distress or by the torch of the spoken word cast into the midst of the people."
