    That’ve fooled anyone, it’s an easy mistake to make

    His actual quote is “WENN DU WIE DIE SONNE SCHEINEN WILLST, MUSST DU ZUERT WIE SIE BRENNEN”

    and I think it’s beautiful

      I can’t find a source for it, though. It’s definitely not from Mein Kampf, as I went through all occurrences of Sonne and it’s not there. There is one quote in there that says: “only once the sun went down can the moon shine”, but that’s quite different. I think it’s just another misattributed quote.
