¢Adolf Hitler speaks to a Hitler Youth Audience

¢1. “My German Youth After one year I can greet you again here you standing here today represent something that is happening all over Germany. And we want that you German boys and girls will absorb everything that we wish for Germany. We want to be one people and through you, to become this people, we want a society with neither class nor ranks. You must not allow these ideas (of class or rank) to grow within you.

¢2. We want to see one Reich and you must educate yourselves; we want this people to be obedient and you must practice obedience. We want this people to be peace-loving by at the same time to be courageous and you must, for that reason, be both peace-loving. You must be both peace loving and strong. We want this people not become soft but to become hard and, therefore, you must steel yourselves for this in your youth.

¢3. You must learn sacrifice and also never to collapse. Whatever we create today whatever we do will all the way but in you Germany will live on and when you can no longer hold the flags that we tore from nothing you must hold it firmly in your fists.”

¢4. And I know that it cannot be any other way as we bind ourselves together for you are the flesh of our flesh and blood from our blood. The same spirit that governs us burns in your young minds. And when the great columns of the movement sweep through Germany today then I know that you will close ranks and we know that Germany lies in front of us, Germany marches within us and Germany follows behind us.
