• Es el enfoque reduccionista de la vida: si lo mantienes pequeño, lo tendrás bajo control. Si no haces ruido, el coco no te encontrará. Pero todo es una ilusión, porque ellos también mueren, esa gente que enrolla su espíritu en pequeñas bolitas para estar a salvo. ¡¿A salvo?! ¿De qué? La vida está siempre al borde de la muerte; las calles estrechas llevan al mismo sitio que las anchas avenidas, y una pequeña vela se consume igual que una antorcha encendida. Yo elijo mi propio camino para arder.

• How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give himself up individually to a righteous cause. Such a fine, sunny day, and I have to go, but what does my death matter, if through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?

• Many people think of our times as being the last before the end of the world. The evidence of horror all around us makes this seem possible. But isn't that an idea of only minor importance? Doesn't every human being, no matter which era he lives in, always have to reckon with being accountable to God at any moment? Can I know whether I'll be alive tomorrow morning? A bomb could destroy all of us tonight. And then my guilt would not be one bit less than if I perished together with the arth and the stars.

  Sophie Scholl

• Isn't it a riddle . . . and awe-inspiring, that everything is so beautiful? Despite the horror. Lately I've noticed something grand and mysterious peering through my sheer joy in all that is beautiful, a sense of its creator . . . Only man can be truly ugly, because he has the free will to estrange himself from this song of praise. It often seems that he'll manage to drown out this hymn with his cannon thunder, curses and blasphemy. But during this past spring it has dawned upon me that he won't be able to do this. And so I want to try and throw myself on the side of the victor.

• He estado pensando en una historia del Antiguo Testamento: Moisés permaneció todo el día y toda la noche con los brazos extendidos, rezando a Dios por la victoria. Y cada vez que bajaba los brazos, el enemigo se imponía a los hijos de Israel. ¿Hay todavía hoy personas que no se cansan de dirigir todo su pensamiento y toda su energía, de todo corazón, a una sola causa?

• It was a sunny day, I was carrying a child in a white dress to be christened. The path to the church led up a steep slope, but I held the child in my arms firmly and without faltering. Then suddenly my footing gave way ... I had enough time to put the child down before plunging into the abyss. The child is our idea. In spite of all obstacles it will prevail.

• I've just been playing the Trout Quintet on the phonograph. Listening to the andantino makes me want to be a trout myself. You can't help rejoicing and laughing, however moved or sad you feel, when you see the springtime clouds in the sky, the budding branches, moved by the wind, in the bright early sunlight. I'm really looking forward to the spring again. In that piece of Schubert's you can positively feel and smell the breeze and hear the birds and the whole of creation shouting for joy.

• When I was able to get home it first hit me that you had left and I couldn't do anything about it. Every day before that an evening with you was waiting for me after school, now no more, strange feeling. I had grown too accustomed to your warmth. That is also a danger. At home I looked at the notebooks that you had bought and I got the stupidest surge of hope that I'd find something of you, something especially for meant for me. I would so much like to have something of you that I could always keep by me, that nobody else would notice.
