„Я — Шарнхорст новой армии.“

„То, о чём объявил этот ефрейтор, нас не касается. Я не собираюсь придерживаться соглашения. Гитлер вероломен и должен отправиться, по крайней мере, в отпуск. Если он не с нами, то мы сделаем своё дело и без Гитлера.“

„С господином Альфредом Розенбергом, этим неуклюжим и бестолковым моралистом, я нахожусь во враждебных отношениях. Некоторые его статьи адресованы непосредственно мне, поскольку я и не скрываю своей точки зрения. Полагаю, что в национал-социалистических кругах давно пора к этому привыкнуть.“

„Тебе стоит лишь сказать: в шесть часов утра такого-то числа будь со своей ротой у Арки победы. И я там буду!“

„Хочу отметить, что не принадлежу к числу бравых парней и не столь тщеславен, чтобы присоединяться к ним.“

„Необходимы нововведения. Нужны новая дисциплина и другой организационный принцип. Генералы — сапожники. Новые идеи им даже не придут в голову.“

“I am still today a soldier and only a soldier. (Ich bin noch heute Soldat und nur Soldat)”

“If I am to be killed, let Adolf do it himself!”

“I expect that on the 1st of August, the SA will be once more ready for duty. If the enemies of the SA are hoping that the SA will not return from leave, we are ready to let them enjoy the hope for a short time. The SA is, and remains, Germany's destiny.”

“Since I am an immature and wicked man, war and unrest appeal to me more than good bourgeois order. Brutality is respected, the people need wholesome fear. They want to fear someone. They want someone to frighten them and make them shudderingly submissive.”

“Adolf is a swine. He will give us all away. He only associates with reactionaries now. His old friends aren't good enough for him. Getting matey with the East Prussian generals. They're his cronies now. Adolf is turning into a gentleman. He's got himself a tail-coat now. Adolf knows exactly what I want. I've told him often enough. Not a second edition of the old imperial army. Are we revolutionaries or aren't we? Allons, enfants de la patrie! If we are, then something new must arise out of our élan, like the mass armies of the French Revolution. If we're not, then we'll go to the dogs. We've got to produce something new, don't you see? A new discipline. A new principle of organization. The generals are a lot of old fogeys. They never had a new idea.”

“Many things are between us and the Communists, but we respect the sincerity of their conviction and their willingness to bring sacrifices for their own cause, and this unites us with them.”

“Hitler can't walk over me as he might have done a year ago; I've seen to that. Don't forget that I have three million men, with every key position in the hands of my own people, Hitler knows that I have friends in the Reichswehr, you know! If Hitler is reasonable I shall settle the matter quietly; if he isn't I must be prepared to use force - not for my sake but for the sake of our revolution.”

“He (Hitler) is thinking about the peasant girls. When they stand in the fields and bend down at their work so that you can see their behinds, that's what he likes, especially when they've got big round ones. That's Hitler's sex life. What a man.”

“Last words after being shot by Michael Lippert. Quoted in "Himmler's Secret War: The Covert Peace Negotiations of Heinrich Himmler" - Page 39 - by Martin Allen - Biography & Autobiography - 2005”

“Röhm deceived himself when he thought that his closeness to Hitler would allow him to survive while other German homosexual men were being persecuted. Röhm was not murdered because he was homosexual, but the fact that he was so gave his enemies a means of turning Hitler against him and securing his destruction.”

“Ernst Roehm was a thug. He was a brutish and zealous believer in National Socialism. If anything, he was more radical than Hitler. He believed in the elimination of anyone connected with the old order, businessmen, office holders of any kind. He became the leader of the SA, the Storm Troopers, whose terror tactics had helped make Hitler the leader of Germany.”
