“If I can't do this, nothing else is worth living for. There would be nothing else left for me to do. If I fail at this, there's nothing else. I can't do anything else.”

“I'm ruined, I'm finished, I've got to end it all. I'm going to go down and blow up the House Committee. I'm going to blow up The New York Times [...] I met a reporter and he dug it up. I admire the man, he's brilliant. He's researched me beyond belief. He found out something that I just can't live with.”

“I have swallowed twenty aspirin tablets. I consider this a fatal dose. I am taking my life as I have nothing more to live for. I had hoped to see the revival of National Socialism. I see now our case is hopeless. We can easily deceive the decadent democracies, but the Soviets are the new Herrenvolk. Now that there is no more chance for the NSDAP [National Socialist Deutsche Arbeit Partei], I no longer have a motive for saving the forces of the decadent democracies. To them I will eternal damnation. I go to my Führer Hitler, Der Grosse in the Third Reich that endures forever. Sieg Heil. Heil Hitler.”

Recorded in: His 1958 (failed) suicide note, quoted in Rosenthal & Gelb (1968), p. 43
“I thank you so much for your letter. I agree with you that Christianity was a great disaster for the Nordic. This doctrine is alien to him and destructive to his nature. I myself am a bitter enemy of this doctrine of weakness—for that is what it is. I would like very much if you could sometime give me what your husband thinks a good program for a Nordic party would be. I would like his detailed political views. I have very great respect for his views and I think I could learn a great deal from him. I have of course my own ideas, but I am still young and still can learn a lot. Only a fool is not anxious to learn. I admire Hitler very much, but one of his faults was he wasn't willing to listen to others.”

Recorded in: March 29, 1960 letter to a fellow fascist, quoted in Rosenthal & Gelb (1968), p. 66
“Struggle is an elemental part of nature. Without struggle civilizations wither and die. To remain young and virile, civilizations must be watered by blood and tears.... Why do we advocate gas chambers for traitors? The extent of traitors' conspiracy requires a large scale method of execution. Also the tradition exemplified by gas chambers drives traitors frantic and helps expose them.... One of the great jokes of modern times is the way National Socialists utilize the institutions of liberalism to destroy said institutions. An example is our "use" of the American Civil Liberties Union. The ACLU is forced to give us legal aid. If they do not help us it makes it apparent that they are only interested in defending the "liberties" of left-wing groups. The sword with which we smite the ACLU is double-edged. Firstly they have to give legal aid to Nazis whom they hate and secondly they lose much support. A good deal of their contributions come from Jews. It can be well imagined that Jews do not relish paying legal fees for Nazis. Therefore contributions to the ACLU drop. Mass psychology. The mass is decidedly feminine. They admire strength and force. The masses say no, but what they mean is force me to say yes to what I really want but won't admit. And about the "Jewish motivation": The startling answer to the Jewish enigma is that the Jews are insane. The Jews as a race are paranoid. This sick people must be stopped before they drag the world down with them.”

Recorded in: The Official Stormtrooper's Manual, quoted in Rosenthal & Gelb (1968), pp. 107–108
“The enemies of the white race would emasculate us by having us believe that our sound instincts are some horrible heresy called "racism" and any attempts of the white race to defend itself are called "murder" and "war crimes." Let us cast aside notions that have been planted in our minds by a thorough system of brainwashing. Away with hypocrisies and lies! Let us face the truth! Man is a killing organism! He must kill to survive. He must kill to advance.... The enemies of the white race have been trying to destroy it, by weakening the white man's will to fight (which of course means to kill). Let us rip aside this veil of lies and hypocrisy.... Let us show them who is the natural elite... who is the world's greatest killer! White man! Unsheath your terrible sword! Slay your enemies. Kill! Kill! Kill!”
