In prison Speer set himself the task of finding out why it had taken him so long to see the error in the way he had chosen. He put himself so long to see the error in the way he had chosen. He put himself through a long and careful self analysis, a process that prison was ideally suited to further. He could read almost any nonpolitical books he chose; so he turned to psychology, philosophy and metaphysics, the kind of books, he says henever in the world would have read or thought he had had the time to read when he was in civil life.. . . . xvii (Introduction)
. . . . An American historian has said of me that I loved machines more than people. He is not wrong. I realize that the sight of suffering people influenced only my emotions, but not my conduct. On the plane of feeling only sentimentality emerged, in a realm of decisions, on the other hand, I continued to be ruled by the principles of unity. In the Nuremberg Trial the indictment against me was based on the use of prisoners in the armament factories. ~ Page 446
Essentially the same ingenuity in finding opportunities for mental action and setting goals is reported by survivors of any solitary confinement, from diplomats captured by terrorists, to elderly ladies imprisoned by Chinese communists. Eva Zeisel, the ceramic designer who was imprisoned in Moscow’s Lefortovo jail mapped the world on the floor of the cell, and then imagined himself traveling across Asia and Europe to America, covering a few kilometers each day. The same “game’ was independently discovered by mani prisoners; for instance Albert Speer, Hitler’s favorite architect, sustained himself in Spandu prison for months by pretending he was taking a walking trip fron BVerlin to Jerusalem, in which h9is imagination provided all the events and sights along the way. ~ Page 90 / 91
