Hans Asperger Quotes

“Asperger's actions are perhaps more reflective of the nature of perpetration in the Third Reich than those of more prominent figures. The Reich's systems of extermination depended upon people like Asperger, who maneuvered themselves, perhaps uncritically, within their positions. Individuals such as Asperger were neither committed killers nor even directly involved in the moment of death. Yet, in the absence of murderous convictions, they made the Reich's killing systems possible.”
― Edith Sheffer, Asperger's Children: The Origins of Autism in Nazi Vienna

“Not everything that steps out of line, and thus 'abnormal,' must necessarily be 'inferior.”
― Hans Asperger
