The negatives about [Adolf] Hitler were that he was away a lot and couldn't behave towards Eva [Braun] as he should.
Gretl Braun[Eva Braun] did not want me to interrupt her or try to lift her spirits. She told me she had to go through these periods by herself.
Gretl Braun[Adolf Hitler] was very close-mouthed, he was the most private individual I have ever seen, very secretive.
Gretl BraunAfter [Adolf] Hitler took power, Hoffmann moved to a grander place on the Ebersbergerstrasse. I never saw the first house, I was never there. It was at the Schnorrstrasse that Eva [Braun] and he first really got to know each other. Some of this was before Geli Raubal's death, much of it was after that event.
Gretl BraunIf [Eva Braun] was crying upstairs, it wouldn't be long before [Adolf] Hitler would quietly excuse himself and then make things right. What he said to her, I don't know. Whether he said the words "I'm sorry," I don't know. But he was a charmer, he knew how to stop a woman from crying.
Gretl Braun[Eva Braun] went to the Nurnberg party rallies starting in 1935. She was there twice and stayed at the Hotel Deutscher Hof, the hotel [Adolf] Hitler had always stayed at while there. It was endless subterfuge in order to see him and then only for a few hours, then she had to sneak back to the banishment of her own room.
