Inside the Third Reich (1982 TV Movie)

Derek Jacobi: Adolf Hitler

Quotes 

• Adolf Hitler : No German is to inhabit land occupied by the enemy. Anyone who does so, any wretch will find himself in a desert, devoid of all the amenities of civilization. I repeat, I reemphasize: I want everything essential to the maintenance of life destroyed. All industrial plants, all gas and water and power, electrical works, telephone exchanges. I want them blown up! Destroyed completely! No more ringing! Dismantle them. Cut the telegraph wires. The relay offices, blow them up. And the spare parts... destroy all spare parts.All the cows, all the chickens, all the food supplies destroyed, I want all the farms burned down, all the livestock... That's it! Kill the cows! That's what I want you to do: kill all the cows! Let General Patton and his killers come through and smell their rotting carcasses! And pigs - kill all the pigs! And flood the mines, all of them! I want them unusable for the next hundred - thousand years! Tear down the castles, blow them up! The churches, the monuments, the opera houses, the theaters: level them! Flatten them to the ground! I don't want one stalk of German wheat to feed the enemy. Burn all the fields, all the wheat! Not one German mouth to give him information; not one German hand to help him! When the enemy gets here, I want every road to be blocked, every bridge destroyed! I want nothing but death, annihilation and hatred to meet him!
