“Naziism kept us so busy with continuous changes and ‘crises,’ and so fascinated by the machinations of our ‘national enemies,’ without and within, that we had no time to think about these dreadful things that were growing, little by little, all around us…And one day, too late, your principles all rush in upon you. The burden of self-deception has grown too heavy, and some minor incident collapses it all at once, and you see that everything has changed, and changed completely.”
Milton Mayer
