« Bildiğimiz şey, tarımın ortaya çıkışından kısa bir süre sonra insanlığın eşitsizliği icat ettiğidir. Aferin millet.
Arkeologlar bunu ilk yerleşimlerdeki evlerin boyutlarına bakarak anlayabilirler. Başlangıç olarak aralarında pek bir fark yok. Toplumlar oldukça eşitlikçi görünüyor.

Hitler was incredibly lazy. According to his aide Fritz Wiedemann, even when he was in Berlin he wouldn’t get out of bed until after 11:00 a.m., and wouldn’t do much before lunch other than read what the newspapers had to say about him, the press cuttings being dutifully delivered to him by Dietrich. But he didn’t even enjoy being in Berlin, where people kept on trying to get him to do stuff: he’d take any opportunity to leave the seat of government and go to his private country retreat in the Obersalzberg, where he’d do even less. There, he wouldn’t even leave his room until 2:00 p.m., and he spent most of his time taking walks, or watching movies until the small hours of the morning.
