So total war is the demand of the hour.... The danger facing us is enormous. The efforts we take to meet it must be just as enormous.... The rest of Europe should at least work to support us. Those who do not understand this fight today will thank us on bended knee tomorrow that we took it on!
- Joseph Goebbels, February 18, 1943
If we just let our vision of the world go forth, and we embrace it entirely, and we don't try to piece together clever diplomacy but just wage a total war, our children will sing great songs about us years from now.
