Adolf Hitler quotes from Jojo Rabbit (2019)

Taika Waititi
A line from Adolf Hitler [comforting Jojo after being bullied "Jojo Rabbit"]

Let them say whatever they want. People used to say a lot of nasty things about me. "Oh this guy's a lunatic." "Oh, look at that psycho, he's gonna get us all killed. [shrugs, knows he DOES kill people] Let me let you on a little secret: the rabbit is no coward. The humble little bunny faces a dangerous world every day, hunting carrots for his family, for his country.

Adolf Hitler
[after Jojo grabs books]

Yes. Great thinking, Rabbit. we'll use all of these books to make a fake floor that she'll fall through, straight into a pit full of piranhas, and—and lava and... bacon. Why, she won't know what hit her.

Adolf Hitler
[After Jojo tells him Elsa is not bad]

I am beginning to question your loyalty to myself and the party. [voice gets louder] You call yourself a patriot?! Yet where is the evidence? The German soldier was born out of necessity. Germany depends on the passion of these young men: passion and the readiness to FALL fot the Fatherland, DESPITE THE FUTILE EFFORTS OF ALLIED WAR PROFITEERS WHO SEND THEIR ILL-PREPARED ARMIES CLUMSILY INTO THE LAIR OF THE WOLF! And only zealous who stand steadfast in the face of the enemy will be ETCHED in German memory forevah! IT IS UP TO YOU TO DECIDE IF YOU WANT TO BE REMEMBERED, or disappear without a trace, like a pitiful grain of sand INTO A DESERT OF INSIGNIFICANCE!

Adolf
[after discovering Elsa, Jojo runs to his room, asking Adolf for advice]

How did she get control like that?

Jojo

She must've used her powers! Mind control.

Adolf

Ah, typical. You see how fast she moves?

Jojo

Yes!

Adolf

Ah, like a female, Jewish Jesse Owens, and now she's got your fancy knife.

Jojo

Mmmph! My knife!

Adolf

Ah, like a female, Jewish Jesse Owens, Jack the Ripper. You're definitely in a pickle, my friend. What to do... what to do...

Both

Got it!

Jojo

I'd negotiate! / Adolf: You're gonna burn the house and blame Winston Churchill. Or negotiate. Hmm.

Adolf
[Jojo fails at negotiating. He goes back to his room, depressed]

She's pretty rude, you know. That's just my two pfennige. And now she's got TWO KNIVES!

Jojo

I KNOW!

Adolf

How you're gonna chop up stuff?

Jojo

I DON'T KNOW!

Adolf

Oh and she's still up there, that thing, that-- that-- that...

Jojo

Jew!

Adolf

Ah, Jew! Ah, what we're gonna do bout that Jew?

Jojo

You think of something.

Adolf

Oh, now I'm the expert?

Jojo

STOP OFFERING ME DAMN CIGARETTES! I'M TEN!

Adolf

Alright, sorry I'm STRESSED OUT! OK, let's talk like turkeys. You can't let your mother know or that Jew will cut off your Nazi head BUT... there's no reason this thing in the attic needs ruin your life-- in fact... you could use it to your advantage.

Jojo

How?

Adolf

When someone tries to use mind powers on me, you know what I do? Use mind powers back on them. Remember last year, when that one-arm pirate, von Stauffenberg, tried to blow me up with a table bomb?

Jojo

Yeah, you survived.

Adolf

Correctumondo. But the only reason I survived, apart from having bomb-proof legs, is that I outwitted old-von Stauffy. I let him think I was dead when in actual, I was absolutely fine. But pretending I was dead, I drew out all the traitors. So what you're going to do?

Jojo

Pretend I'm dead?

Adolf

Exactly-- no. No, what I mean is this: make her feel safe and then she'll drop her guard and then YOU will be the one in control.

Jojo

Reverse psychology!

Adolf

Don't complicate things. Just use my backwards mind power trick, and everything will be fine. [sees watch] Oh, I have to go. We're having unicorn for dinner at my place tonight. Concentrate, Jojo! Remember, a Jew living in your wall is better than two Jews flying around with their bat wings climbing down chimneys and eating innocent Nazis. And don't give her any more knives! Tschüss! [proceeds to jump out of the window]
