I am planning to add a section with Third Reich-related quotes to my site, the Third Reich Factbook at http://www.skalman.nu/third-reich/ The section will include quotes from political leaders (Hitler, Goebbels etc), military leaders (Rommel, Manstein, Hausser etc) as well as regular soldiers & citizens, prehaps also from from those who fought against the axis. If you know of any good (interesting, fascinating etc) quotes, please send them to me. Apart from the actual quote I would like the source and if possible a brief comment on the context. What I had in mind would look something like this: "Can't you rid us of our commander?" Lammerding to Guderian when the Army Chief of Staff was visiting Himmler at Heeresgruppe Weischel HQ in mid-March 1945 (Source: "Panzer Leader" by Heinz Guderian) Any and all help is appreciated, thanks. /Marcus marcus_wendel@yahoo.se
That's a great idea and I will dig into my favorite of books "Panzer Battles" by F.W. von Mellenthin. ------------------ "They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war there is nothing sweet or fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason."
Quotes Eh, "I hate Jerks" Pappy Boyington. "This Man Is In B Company--Be Here When They Go And Be Here When They Come Back". Paul Hogan in the Mini-series: "ANZACS--The War Down Under". Sorry Otto--I had to include that one.
I'm compiling quotes for a listing here also,. If you have any, post them/email them to me and I'll list as a contributor to the site.
Nother quote. A Red Ball Express Stevadore saying: "Lift and load", (repeat) lift and load!!" (R) "One for little Adolf," (R) "and one for the road"!!
