The hatred of those who are near to us is most violent.

Seek to make a person blush for their guilt rather than shed their blood.

This I regard as history's highest function, to let no worthy action be uncommemorated, and to hold out the reprobation of posterity as a terror to evil words and deeds.

The customs of the Jews are base and abominable and owe their persistence to their depravity. Jews are extremely loyal to one another, always ready to show compassion, but towards every other people they feel only hate and enimity. As a race (the Jews are not a race, because they have mingled with the other races to the point that they are only a people, not a race), they are prone to lust; among themselves nothing is unlawful.

It is a part of the nature of man to resist compulsion.

Lust of power is the most flagrant of all the passions.

Valor is the contempt of death and pain.
