I’ve always said that better the death of Masada than the death of Dachau. The first only takes courage the second only needs despair.

As far as I’m concerned, French resistance writer Jean Dutourd hit it right on the head:

“War is less costly than servitude. In the end, the choice is always between Verdun and Dachau.”

So there it is.
