By the Revolution the Germans have made themselves pariahs among the nations, incapable of winning allies, helots in the service of foreigners and foreign capital, and deprived of all self-respect. In twenty years' time, the German people will curse the parties who now boast of having made the Revolution.

— Erich Ludendorff

There is but one hope, and this hope is embodied in the national groups which desire our recovery.

A field marshal is born, not made!

During the years of the so-called peace, politics—total politics—have only a meaning in as much as they prepare for total war.

What the enemy allows to us and praises in us, must be bad for us.
