Goebbels, My Part in Germany's Fight. The foregoing remark of Hitler's, which was made during a speech in Konigsberg on 17th October 1932, runs as follows:

'What I strive for is power and not a title. . . I want only power. Once we obtain power then we shall, so help us God, keep it. We shall not ever let it be taken from us' (quoted in Max Domarus, 'Hitler. Reden und Proklamationen 1932-1945', Vol. I).
