Quotable: Stanley Milgram on bad Germans

"There is always some element of bad form in objecting to the destructive course of events, or indeed, in making it a topic of conversation. Thus, in Nazi Germany, even among those most closely identified with the 'final solution', it was considered an act of discourtesy to talk about the killings."

--Stanley Milgram, Obedience to Authority
