“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 pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”
— Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring, to interviewer Gustave Gilbert during the Easter recess of the Nürnberg trials, 18 April 1946.
