If he had a political hero at this time it was Röhm, not Hitler.
~ Peter Longerich

~ Adolf Hitler
Het is de taak van de propaganda, om aanhangers te werven; de taak van de organisatie is, om leden te maken. Hij, die verklaart, het eens te zijn met de idealen van de beweging, is aanhanger; hij die voor de beweging strijdt, is lid. De sympathie van de aanhanger wordt gewonnen door de propaganda. Het lid wordt er door de organisatie toe gebracht, om zelf mee te werken, teneinde nieuwe aanhangers te winnen, waaruit dan weer nieuwe leden kunnen groeien.
~ Adolf Hitler

~ Walter Gilmour
The opposition is indispensable. A good statesman, like any other sensible human being, always learns more from his opponents than from his fervent supporters. For his supporters will push him to disaster unless his opponents show him where the dangers are. So if he is wise he will often pray to be delivered from his friends, because they will ruin him. But, though it hurts, he ought also to pray never to be left without opponents; for they keep him on the path of reason and good sense.
~ Walter Lippmann
His supporters will push him to disaster unless his opponents show where the dangers are.
