213. A little more from 1975

Now I have found out something more, from when I heard, that he at the office, and he who “influenced” me, talked while they thought that I was sleeping, Monday, December 29, 1975.

He at the office says to him who “influenced” me:

“It was good that we found out about this. Now we have been able to do something with that. Now he never will manage to do something with what he could have managed. Now we only have to look after how this develops.”

This can be regarding that I talked with her, who we lived by the first five years of my life, one time again later shortly before she died. Then she was taken up with that it was important to find out about, and understand, what really goes on. This was regarding the First World War and the Second World War, and the nuclear armaments race with the Cold War at that time. She was taken up with that it happens something with people, which is what is dangerous. Among others she talked about that it is important to understand, what had happened with the Norwegian author Knut Hamsun 1859 ‐ 1952. We had got his collected writings as a gift from her, when we lived there, together with other books. She talked about that he hadn’t understood what really happened during the Second World War, and that it was the same with other people also. And that it was dangerous, that people had been so enthusiastic about something as the Nazism, because they comprehended it as something good and great. This is important to find out about and understand what is, she said. She also talked about Joseph Goebbels’ total war speech on a sports space, where he had driven people with himself. It is possible to see it on YouTube, www.youtube.com (Joseph Goebbels total war speech) or (Sportpalast speech). What they do now is the same, she said. (Regarding the Cold War.)

But I have no memory about what that statement on the office, where I became “influenced”, was about. It all is also very vague. I comprehend that I comprehended it, as regarding everything, which had to do with me. The memory about this can be compared with an image which is so much erased away, that it nearly isn’t possible to see what it is.

Another gleam of memory from the same situation; is that he who “influenced” me, says to him at the office:

“Now we have to go towards and see how it goes with him there.”

I then think; that now I have to sleep. And then I don’t remember more.
