Baldur von Schirach cytaty

„W tej godzinie, gdy po raz ostatni mówię przed trybunałem wojskowym z czterech zwycięskich mocarstw, chciałbym z czystym sumieniem upewnić naszą niemiecką młodzież, że w żadnym stopniu nie ponosi winy za wynaturzenia i zwyrodnienia reżimu hitlerowskiego stwierdzone w tym procesie. Młodzież ta nie wiedziała nic o niezliczonych okrucieństwach, które zostały popełnione przez Niemców. Panowie sędziowie, wydajcie taki wyrok, który dla młodego pokolenia będzie oznaczać stworzenie wzajemnego szacunku, atmosferę wolną od nienawiści i uczucia zemsty. Jest to moja ostatnia prośba, serdeczna prośba ze względu na naszą niemiecką młodzież.”

Baldur von Schirach

wypowiedziane w dniu 31 sierpnia 1946 w norymberskim Pałacu Sprawiedliwości jako ostatnie słowo w procesie.

“If today he descended from Heaven, the great warrior who struck the moneychangers. You would once again shout crucify! And nail him to the cross that he himself carried. But he would gently laugh at your hatred. The truth remains even when your bearers are passed. Faith remains, because I give my life… And the fighter of all the world towers on the cross.”

“Some of the defendants say that dictatorship can be good if there is a good dictator. But I say that a man cannot stay good if he becomes a dictator. Authoritarianism is a system that destroys man's morality. If you take a saint and give him power, he will change into a Hitler or a devil.”

To a league of German girls. Quoted in "German Bodies: Race and Representation After Hitler" - Page 47 - by Uli Linke - Social Science - 1999

“If he descended from heaven today
the great warrior who beat the money-traders
you would once more shout your "crucifige!"
and nail him to the cross which he himself bore.

But he mildly smiles upon your hate:
"The truth will prevail, even if the bearer falls;
the faith will live, for I give my life …
and stands tall at the cross for all warriors of the world."”
