Fritz Todt quotes about
construction-projects cities names
The external appearance of any construction projects that are created during the time of the National Socialist Reich must take on the sensibility of our time. Factories are the workplaces of our National Socialist racial comrades. Streets and highways carry the name of the Führer. Settlements today are not isolated communities, but rather parts of greater city-construction plans. Every work site must be properly located within its neighborhood and surrounding setting (i.e., the natural world).
spiritual unique cities
The German landscape is something unique that we cannot disturb and have no right to destroy. The more densely populated our 'living space' becomes with settlements, the greater our hunger will grow for unspoilt nature. The ever increasing spiritual damage caused by life within the big city will make this hunger practically uncontrollable... when we build here on this the landscape of our homeland we must be clear that we will protect its beauty; and in places where this beauty has already disappeared, we will reconstruct it.
effort imagine natural
I could not imagine that we should make much of an effort to preserve remainders of natural beauty in conquered Poland.
reconstruction uncontrollable
In places where this beauty has already disappeared, we will reconstruct it.
workplace factories socialist
Factories are the workplaces of our National Socialist racial comrades.
highways national
In these highways our engineering will reflect the National Socialist movement.
