Note 039

39 Bullock, Hitler. Goebbels remarked with a similar illustration: 'Just the same in Germany; a few flames burn brightly, the others only reflect their light' (My Part in Germany's Fight, entry for 4th January 1932). Almost the same remark emerges apparently exactly a year later, on 3rd January 1933, in this same diary.


From Chapter 23, Attempt At A Summing Up , Part 4 of The Face Of The Third Reich by J.C. Fest
