I have often regretted what I have eaten, but never what I have drunk.

I am bored. The great things are done. The German Reich is made.

There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America.

I have only one ambition left: I should like to have a good epitaph.

The death of Lincoln was a disaster for Christendom. There was no man in the United States great enough to wear his boots and the bankers went anew to grab the riches. I fear that foreign bankers with their craftiness and tortuous tricks will entirely control the exuberant riches of America and use it to systematically corrupt civilization.

A government must not waiver once it has chosen its course. It must not look to the left or right but go forward.

I consider even a victorious war as an evil, from which statesmanship must endeavor to spare nations.
