Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil by Hannah Arendt

---

"...under conditions of terror most people will comply but some people will not, just as the lesson of the countries to which the Final Solution was proposed is that it could happen in most places but it did not happen everywhere. Humanly speaking, no more is required, and no more can reasonably be asked, for this planet to remain a place fit for human habitation." Arendt sure knows how to cheer us up!
