Have you ever watched a speech of him? It makes one laugh and cry at the same time. And one doesn't need to think hard to recognize that he had a big inferiority feelings.
But these things don't make one a good leader. He totally ruined Germany (even before the war). A few more years of his "good leadership" and Germany would have been bankrupt.
Maybe he was clever (knowing how to gain power beforehand), but he was not a good leader.
Unhappy is he to whom the memories of childhood bring only fear and sadness. Wretched is he who looks back upon lone hours in vast and dismal chambers with brown hangings and maddening rows of antique books, or upon awed watches in twilight groves of grotesque, gigantic, and vine-encumbered trees that silently wave twisted branches far aloft. Such a lot the gods gave to me - to me, the dazed, the disappointed, the barren, the broken.
