God never punishes his children in the sense of avenging justice. He chastens as a father does his child, but he never punishes his redeemed as a judge does a criminal. It is unjust to exact punishment from redeemed souls since Christ has been punished in their place. How shall the Lord punish twice for one offense?
— Charles Spurgeon

Whoever cries about having lost the Nazi system or wants to resurrect National Socialism is to be treated as a lunatic.
— Friedrich Kellner
