Speech in Berlin (10 November 1933), quoted in The Times (26 September 1939), p. 9
“
I am not crazy enough to want a war. ... The German people have but one wish—to be happy in their own way and to be left in peace. They do not interfere in other people's business, and others should not interfere in theirs. ... When has the German people ever broken its word?
