Klaus Mann
“Yes, I am beginning to be frightened in Berlin. Things are about to happen there that horrify me - and the most horrible part of it is that the people around me seem not to see the danger. They are struck with blindness.”
Klaus Mann, Mephisto

“If it was possible to objectively measure the spiritual life of a city—through the language of its municipal charter, the legislative influence of its church leaders, the ratio of religious institutions to residents, its weekly church attendance, the judicious enforcement of Blue Laws, and so forth—then Berlin (with Montevideo and San Francisco) would have to be considered as one of the most faithless—or heathen—cities in the Western world. Much of the unvirtuous Berlin ethos can be explained by global events (the mass influx of French Huguenots and Central European Jews; the rise of modern capitalism) and ideological shifts (the weakening of Lutheran doctrine; trickle-down faith in scientific inquiry and Nietzschean vitalism); but, mostly by the creation of a self-conscious urban identity.”
Mel Gordon, Voluptuous Panic: The Erotic World of Weimar Berlin
