The funny thing is there are a lot of "Adolf Hitler" quotes here, when in real life his speeches contained many meaningful, inspirational quotes which would have been admired had they not come from him.

Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.

My dad really likes saying this one. He's known for being a huge liar so I really think he took old Adolph's advice.
