Великите личности са основно три типа - Мъж на своето време, Мъж отвъд времето и Мъж срещу времето.

Хитлер изобщо не е бил психически болен, просто спада към третия, най-трагичен тип. Не можеш да воюваш срещу целия свят, няма как да стане. Но все пак той е последният голям завоевател в Европа, последният наистина голям.

...but General Alfred Jodl, his closest strategic adviser, also wrote
in his Nuremberg cell on March 10 1946:

"Then however I ask myself, did you ever really know this man at whose
side you led such a thorny and ascetic existence? Did he perhaps just
trifle with your idealism too, abusing it for dark purposes which he kept
hidden deep within himself? Dare you claim to know a man, if he has not
opened up the deepest recesses of his heart to you – in sorrow as well as
in ecstasy? To this very day I do not know what he thought or knew or
really wanted. I only knew my own thoughts and suspicions. And if, now
that the shrouds fall away from a sculpture we fondly hoped would be a
work of art, only to reveal nothing but a degenerate gargoyle – then let
future historians argue among themselves whether it was like that from
the start, or changed with circumstances.
I keep making the same mistake: I blame his humble origins. Then
however I remember how many peasants’ sons have been blessed by History
with the name, The Great."
