This is deeply ironic, but doesn't have anything to do with the history
of the quoted person. Would anyone really doubt that there is a big
grain of truth in that? For exactly that reason I object this chance.

alright I see your point. Maybe to put mine like this: I think it's not good to convey the image of a thoughtful, admireable person when it is Hitler in fact.


Is there a way not to imply that Hitler was thoughtful? Or is that implied by the name Hitler itself?
