A Quote by Ernst Hanfstaengl

Hitler wanted to hear all about the American skyscrapers ... but failed utterly to draw logical conclusions from the information. .... He was passionately interested in the Ku Klux Klan. ... He seemed to think it was a political movement similar to his own.

The 'terrorist' behavior of petitioners is remarkably similar to the conspiracy of violence and intimidation carried out by the Ku Klux Klan.

Dawn Johnsen

It's not appropriate to joke about the Ku Klux Klan.

Mitt Romney

Be sure you avoid the Ku Klux Klan. Don't get that albatross around your neck. Once you've made that mistake, you inhibit your operations in the political arena.

Robert Byrd

I accepted an invitation to talk to the women's branch of the Ku Klux Klan.

Margaret Sanger

I never ever ran from the Ku Klux Klan, and I shouldn't have to run from a black man.

Kool Moe Dee

Way back about nineteen-twenty there was a Klan... The Ku Klux's gone... It'll never come back.

Harper Lee

Fox News is worse than al Qaeda. It's as dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan.

Keith Olbermann

My father is a gypsy. He traveled in caravans and was branded by the Ku Klux Klan. You know I have a history about race in my family that has very much to do with the other things that you name about poverty, about class, about access - or lack of it.

Amber Hollibaugh

Democracy is not compatible with financial oligarchy, with discrimination against Blacks and outrages by the Ku Klux Klan.

Che Guevara

As a matter of social class Ku Klux Klan would have been regarded as white trash.

Kurt Vonnegut

I've always been curious about the psychology of the person behind the mask. When someone is anonymous, it opens the door to all kinds of antisocial behavior, as seen by the Ku Klux Klan.

Philip Zimbardo

It was headquartered in Michigan City, a long way off. I never saw Ku Klux Klan march.

Kurt Vonnegut

Clay is so young and has been misled by the wrong people. He might as well have joined the Ku Klux Klan.

Floyd Patterson

Do people in the Ku Klux Klan who die and come back as ghosts have to wear two sheets when attending the rally?

Dana Gould

I think for the foreseeable future we have to disabuse ourselves of any ideas of unifying, or coming together, or all getting along. I don't think we're going to reconcile the America that elected the first African American president with the America that just elected a president avidly endorsed by the Ku Klux Klan - I'm not sure I even want to reconcile the two.

Steve Erickson

There's a black lawyer in Galveston, Texas, who was the unpaid NAACP general counsel in Texas. He had a great record in housing discrimination, labor discrimination. He decided to take as a client a member of the Ku Klux Klan because the state wanted to get the membership lists of the Klan to find out if they could get something on the Klan. And he said, `I got to take you. I despise you. But we, the NAACP, won that case; NAACP vs. Alabama in the 1950s. Nobody has the right to get your membership lists.' He was fired from the NAACP. To me, he's a hero.
