Landtag of Thuringia

All for Germany.

— Björn Höcke, Thuringian AfD state chairman, in a local Erfurt TV interview in which he used the SS slogan 'All for Germany'.

Whoever votes for right-wing extremists does not want a mere slap on the wrist, as is often said. Whoever wants the lions to come into the arena wants to see blood as well.

— Hape Kerkeling; quoted in the KSTA article about voters' responsibility in the context of the AfD debate

We have reached a point in Germany where it takes courage and strength to stand up for our liberal-democratic society.

— Hape Kerkeling; Context: Remark in relation to his speech in the Thuringian state parliament and defending the liberal-democratic society

That pretty much everyone has understood by now that Höcke's statement was false. With that, the legislator's goal has been achieved.

— Tobias Schmid, director of the Medienanstalt NRW, commenting on the conclusion of the Höcke podcast review

Whether we give up everything that has made Germany strong: unity in freedom, alignment with the West, and a liberal value system. Or whether we leave the EU, abolish the euro, and let ourselves be drawn toward authoritarian systems.

— Mario Voigt (CDU), Thuringia's Minister-President, in an interview with Zeit

You can use anything.

— Alexander Gauland; described in the article as his standard closing line after interviews with journalists
