Notes pp.6-7

nichts angehe, wenn ich hörte, wie Juden, Freimaurer, Sozialdemokraten oder Zeugen Jehovas von meiner Umgebung wie Freiwild beurteilt wurden. Ich meinte, es genüge, wenn ich selber mich daran nicht beteiligte".

13. Speer, pp. 384 385:
"So kommt es mir vor, als habe der verzweifelte Wettlauf mit der Zeit, dieses besessene Starren auf Produktions- und Ausstoßzahlen, alle Er wägungen und Gefühle der Menschlichkeit zugedeckt … ..Mich beunruhigt vielmehr, daß ich in den Gesichtern der Haftlinge nicht die Physiognomie des Regimes gespiegelt sah, dessen Existenz ich in diesen Wochen und Monaten so manisch zu verlängern trachtete".
