“Whether the other races [non-German] live in comfort or perish of hunger interests me only in so far as we need them as SLAVES FOR OUR CULTURE; apart from that it does not interest me. Whether or not 10,000 RUSSIAN WOMEN COLLAPSE from exhaustion while digging a tank ditch interests me only in so far as the tank ditch is completed for Germany.”

“It is absolutely wrong to project our own harmless soul with its deep feelings, our kindheartedness, our idealism, upon ALIEN PEOPLES. This is true, beginning with Herder, who must have been drunk when he wrote the Voices Of The Peoples, thereby bringing such immeasurable suffering and misery upon us who came after him. This is true, beginning with the Czechs and Slovenes, to whom we brought their sense of nationhood. THEY THEMSELVES WERE INCAPABLE OF IT, but we invented it for them.

One principle must be absolute for the SS man: we must be honest, decent, loyal, and friendly to members of our blood and to no one else. What happens to the Russians, what happens to the Czechs, IS A MATTER OF UTTER INDIFFERENCE TO ME. Such good blood of our own kind as there may be among the nations we shall acquire for ourselves, if necessary by taking away the children and bringing them up among us.”

“We shall never be rough or heartless where it is not necessary; that is clear. We Germans, who are the only people in the world who have a decent attitude to animals, will also adopt a decent attitude TO THESE HUMAN ANIMALS.”
