Description

"In regard to the Germans and foreigners, I esteem them no better than other people, nor any worse." – Abraham Lincoln, speech to Germans at Cincinnati, Ohio (12 February 1861)

"The imperialist ideology of force, from whatever side it comes, must be shattered for all time. A one sided Prussian militarism must never again be allowed to assume power. Only in large-scale cooperation among the nations of Europe can the ground be prepared for reconstruction. Centralized hegemony, such as the Prussian state has tried to exercise in Germany and in Europe, must be cut down at its inception. The Germany of the future must be a federal state." – White Rose resistance group, fifth leaflet (circa 1942)
