Perhaps the sentiment was best expressed by noted Holocaust survivor turned Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal: “For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing.” More than anything else, Hitler proved that monsters do exist, but sadly, they aren’t as obvious as how they are depicted in horror movies. They have very human faces and often have lived all too human lives, sometimes marked by conflict and pain, but as was the case with Hitler’s relationship with his mother and his sisters, not always devoid of love.
