“[Adolf] Eichmann and his friends firmly believed that, suitably cleansed of its tainted leaders (Himmler in particular was singled out as being beyond redemption), Nazism could be revitalized as a political force. ‘You can lose the world war, but you can be a winner if you are able to write books,’ said [Bettina] Stangneth. ‘And this was the plan. To make the propaganda for the next hundred years.’” -- Saul Austerlitz, "No Banality in This Evil"
