Wolf Frees: Adm. Canaris

Quotes 

• Admiral Canaris : Well?

  German Officer : There's nothing new from Madrid, Admiral. The Führer has told his conference that the documents are undoubtedly genuine.

  Admiral Canaris : You mean HE doesn't doubt them.

  German Officer : He's quite sure.

  Admiral Canaris : The Führer, of course, has certain advantages over mere intelligence officers like you and me, Frederick. He has his intuition, whereas we have to rely on our brains. And he's sure God is on his side.

  German Officer : But you are not?

  Admiral Canaris : I do not believe that God is on my side to the extent of sending me the enemy's plans.
