Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country. —Hermann Goering (German SS Nazi)
“An evil exists that threatens every man, woman, and child of this nation. We must take actions to ensure our domestic sevurity and protect our homeland.” —Adolf Hitler, (At creation of Nazi Gestapo)
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” —Joseph Goebbels -Hilters Propaganda Minister
