I did not put the original quotes there, and I am not a Hitler fan.
I have moved the two offensive to women Hitler quotes to the
offensive database, but I don't think it is appropriate to remove
the rest. Removing the remaining quotes would be in my opinion
sensorship. I would like to remind you again that the fortunes
database also contains quotes from Stalin, Genghis Khan, etc. Yes,
we could restrict our fortune database to contain quotes only from
Disney characters, but that would not make it very interesting.
