“Only the Jew knew that by an able and persistent use of propaganda heaven itself can be presented to the people as if it were hell and, vice versa, the most miserable kind of life can be presented as if it were paradise. The Jew knew this and acted accordingly. But the German, or rather his Government, did not have the slightest suspicion of it. During the War the heaviest of penalties had to be paid for that ignorance.

-- Mein Kampf, Chapter 10”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“Reading is not an end to itself, but a means to an end.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“لقد كان في وسعي أن أقضي على كل يهود العالم ولكني تركت بعضا منهم لتعرفوا لماذا كنت أبيدهم”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“The art of reading consists in remembering the essentials and forgetting non essentials.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“The only preventative measure one can take is to live irregularly.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf



“Instruction in world history in the so-called high schools is even today in a very sorry condition. Few teachers understand that the study of history can never be to learn historical dates and events by heart and recite them by rote; that what matters is not whether the child knows exactly when this battle or that was fought, when a general was born, or even when a monarch (usually a very insignificant one) came into the crown of his forefathers. No, by the living God, this is very unimportant. To 'learn' history means to seek and find the forces which are the causes leading to those effects which we subsequently perceive as historical events.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“The frailest woman will become a heroine when the life of her own child is at stake. And only the will to save the race and native land or the State, which offers protection to the race, has in all ages been the urge which has forced men to face the weapons of their enemies.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“Obstacles do not exist to be surrendered to, but only to be broken.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“He who would live must fight. He who doesn't wish to fight in this world, where permanent struggle is the law of life, has not the right to exist.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“لقد اكتشفت مع الأيام أنه ما من فعلٍ مغايرٍ للأخلاق, وما من جريمة بحق المجتمع إلا ولليهود يداً فيها”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf



“While the Zionists try to make the rest of the World believe that the national consciousness of the Jew finds its satisfaction in the creation of a Palestinian state, the Jews again slyly dupe the dumb Goyim. It doesn't even enter their heads to build up a Jewish state in Palestine for the purpose of living there; all they want is a central organisation for their international world swindler, endowed with its own sovereign rights and removed from the intervention of other states: a haven for convicted scoundrels and a university for budding crooks.
It is a sign of their rising confidence and sense of security that at a time when one section is still playing the German, French-man, or Englishman, the other with open effrontery comes out as the Jewish race.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“إن لم تكن تعلم أين تذهب فكل الطرق تفي بالغرض .”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“Be proud of your people when you don't have to be ashamed of any of its social classes.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“إنّ الانسان لايُناضل إلا من أجل مايُحِبّ، ولايُحِبّ إلا ماهو حريٌّ بالتقدير والاحترام، فكيف يُطلب من مواطن أن يُحبّ وطنه ويُقدّرُه وهو يجهل تاريخه ولايشعر في قرارة نفسه بأنّه ينعم بما تُؤمّنُه الدول الأخرى لرعاياها من أمن ورفاهية.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“The scream of the twelve-inch shrapnel is more penetrating than the hiss from a thousand Jewish newspaper vipers. Therefore let them go on with their hissing.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf



“I am firmly convinced to-day that, generally speaking, it is in youth that men lay the essential groundwork of their creative thought, wherever that creative thought exists. I make a distinction between the wisdom of age- which can only arise from the greater profundity and foresight that are based on the experiences of a long life- and the creative genius of youth, which blossoms out in thoughts and ideas with inexhaustible fertility, without being able to put these into practice immediately, because of their very superabundance. These furnish the building materials and plans for the future; and it is from them that age takes the stones and builds the edifice, unless the so-called wisdom of the years may have smothered the creative genius of youth.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“Industry, technology, and commerce can thrive only as long as an idealistic national community offers the necessary preconditions. And these do not lie in material egoism, but in a spirit of sacrifice and joyful renunciation.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“There are certain truths which stand out so openly on the roadsides of life, as it were, that every passer-by may see them. Yet, because of their obviousness, the general run of people disregard such truths or at least they do not make them the object of any concious knowledge. People are so bliend to some of the simplest facts in everyday life that they are highly surprised when somebody calls attention to what everybody ought to know.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“ليسَ العُمّال بمسؤولين عمّا تُعانيه البلاد من مشاكل، فالمسؤولون هم أولئك الذين لم يُحمّلوا أنفسهم عناء الاهتمام بحالة الشعب والعمل على إنصافه ووضع حَدّ لتضليل المُضللين وفساد الفاسدين.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“I know that fewer people are won over by the written word than by the spoken word and that every great movement on this earth owes its growth to great speakers and not to great writers.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf



“The application of force alone, without support based on a spiritual concept, can never bring about the destruction of an idea or arrest the propagation of it, unless one is ready and able to ruthlessly to exterminate the last upholders of that idea even to a man, and also wipe out any tradition which it may tend to leave behind.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“Any philosophy, whether of a religious or political nature - and sometimes the dividing line is hard to determine - fights less for the negative destruction of the opposing ideology than for the positive promotion of its own. Hence its struggle is less defensive than offensive. It therefore has the advantage even in determining the goal, since this goal represents the victory of its own idea, while, conversely,it is hard to determine when the negative aim of the destruction of a hostile doctrine may be regarded as achieved and assured. For this reason alone, the philosophy's offensive will be more systematic and also more powerful than the defensive against a philosophy, since here, too, as always, the attack and not the defence makes the decision. The fight against a spiritual power with methods of violence remains defensive, however, until the sword becomes the support,the herald and disseminator, of a new spiritual doctrine.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“أليس من سخرية القدر أن يفصل الجهلة فى القضايا السياسية الخطيرة مثلا لتضيع اراء الصفوة فى زحمة الثرثرة والصراخ ؟. أليس من العار أن تترك مقدرات أمة تحت رحمة مواطنين يتصرفون بهذه المقدرات بخفة ومجون كما لو كانو يلعبون الورق؟؟؟”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“الفقر هو صنو الجهل وصنو المرض , ومتى اجتمع الثلاثة كفر الشعب بالدولة ومات فى النفوس كل شعور وطنى.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“ان رجلا يتهرب من تحمل مسؤولية عمل ويبحث دائما عمن يغطيه ليس له من الرجولة أكثر من الأسم , انه جبان . بل حقير . والأمة التى يكون زعمائها من هذا الطراز لا تلبس أن تعانى أوخم النتائج.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf



“ما نسميه " الرأى العام " لا يرتكز دائما على الخبرة الشخصية ومعرفة الأفراد معرفة حقيقية , فهو فى الغالب خاضع لتأثير الدعاوة التى توجه يوما فيوما وتنفث سمومها فى دمه دون أن يشعر . ان الصحافة هى التى تتولى تنشئة الجمهور سياسيا بما تنشر من أخبار وتبث من اراء.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“The Strong Man is Mightiest Alone.”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“ان تحويل الشعب الى أمة خلاقة يفترض قيام وسط اجتماعى سليم يعمل على تنشئة المواطن تنشئة وطنية .., فليس يستشعر الاعتزاز بالانتماء الى بلد ما الا من يتعلم فى البيت والمدرسة حب الوطن ويقدر أمجاده فى ميادين الفكر والسياسة والاقتصاد . ان الانسان لا يناضل الا من أجل ما يحب , ولا يحب الا ما هو حرى بالتقدير والاحترام”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“أليس من العار أن تترك مقدرات أمّة تحت رحمة مواطنين يتصرفون بهذه المقدرات بخفّة و مجون كما لو كانوا يلعبون الورق ..”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf


“لا يحق لدولة أن تفرض احترامها على الشعب عندما تعبث بالمصالح العامة وتتعمد الحاق الأذى بهذا الشعب . و أن سلطة الدولة لا يمكن أن تكون غاية بحد ذاتها , والا كان كل طغيان مكرسا ومقدسا . وعندما تقود الحكومة الشعب الى الخراب بشتى الوسائل والامكانيات يصبح عصيان كل فرد من أفراد الشعب حقا من حقوقه, بل واجبا وطنيا .”
― Adolf Hitler, quote from Mein Kampf

“Perhaps he has gotten this far based on people confusing bullying for strength of personality.”
― Joelle Charbonneau, quote from Independent Study


“I have had it up to here with my wedding," I said. "The other day Andrea tried to explain to me that apparently I am supposed to have a new thing, an old thing, a blue thing, and something stolen."
"Borrowed, Kate," Barabas murmured.
"Who the hell even makes up those rules?”
― Ilona Andrews, quote from Magic Breaks


“I appeal from your customs. I must be myself. I cannot break myself any longer for you, or you. If you can love me for what I am, we shall be happier. If you cannot, I will still seek to deserve that you should. I must be myself. I will not hide my tastes or aversions. I will so trust that what is deep is holy, that I will do strongly before the sun and moon whatever inly rejoices me and the heart appoints. If you are noble, I will love you; if you are not, I will not hurt you and myself by hypocritical attentions. If you are true, but not in the same truth with me, cleave to your companions; I will seek my own. I do this not selfishly but humbly and truly. It is alike your interest, and mine, and all men’s, however long we have dwelt in lies, to live in truth. Does this sound harsh to-day? You will soon love what is dictated by your nature as well as mine, and if we follow the truth it will bring us out safe at last.—But so may you give these friends pain. Yes, but I cannot sell my liberty and my power, to save their sensibility. Besides, all persons have their moments of reason, when they look out into the region of absolute truth; then will they justify me and do the same thing.
The populace think that your rejection of popular standards is a rejection of all standard, and mere antinomianism; and the bold sensualist will use the name of philosophy to gild his crimes. But the law of consciousness abides.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson, quote from Self-Reliance and Other Essays


“Are you well? You look a trifle peaked.'
'If I do, it is because black doesn't become me. I mean to lighten my mourning, and have ordered a charming gray gown.'
'You are mistaken.'
'What, in going into half-mourning?'
'No, in thinking black does not become you.”
― Georgette Heyer, quote from Bath Tangle


“There! There it is again! What language is that?"

From the bed, Roarke shifted. "I believe it's known as rooster."

With the weapon at her side, she stared at him, slack-jawed. "Are you fucking kidding me?"

"Not a bit. It's morning, more or less, and that's a cock signaling the dawn."

"A cock?"

"I'd say. I don't think Sindead and her man want you to stun their rooster, but I have to say, Lieutenant, you make a fascinating picture."

She heaved out a breath, set her weapon down. "Jesus Christ, we may as well be on another planet." She slid back into bed. "And if your cock gets any ideas about signaling the day, remember I've got a weapon.”
― J.D. Robb, quote from Indulgence in Death

About BookQuoters

BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.

We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.

Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
