Adolf Hitler — "Democracy is nothing but the rule of the mob."

"Propaganda attempts to force a doctrine upon the whole people. It works on the general public from the standpoint of an idea and makes them ripe for the victory of this idea."

"The broad masses of a population are more amenable to the appeal of rhetoric than to any other force."

"The great masses of the people will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one."

"The man who has no sense of history is like a man who has no eyes or ears."

"The broad masses of a nation are not made up of professors and diplomats. They are born of the soil, simple in their understanding, and firm in their convictions."
