71. "The Germans are easier to get along with than the French, because the Germans are law-abiding."

     The Germans obey the law - even if the laws are barbaric laws. The Germans obey their leaders - even if their leaders are savage, corrupt and obscene. The Germans obeyed Bismark; they obeyed Kaiser Wilhelm; they obeyed Hitler.

     Would the French have obeyed such men and such policies ? Would we Americans ?
