Quotes About Decision

In every decision ask yourselves: "Is this decision compatible with the National Socialist conscience of the German people?"

There are people who believe that there should be a standard psychiatric examination for every presidential candidate and for every president.

Hope is the spark in you that is not subdued in the face of the vast and callous indifference of the universe. Hope is that which is not shattered by hardship. Hope is the urge to fight what is wrong even when you know it will destroy you. Hope is the decision to love and need someone knowing that they will one day die.
