“Both through his paternal education and natural make-up, he treated his patients not as ‘cases’ but as friends. He never hesitated to take them for a walk arm in arm, or to invite them for a cup of coffee at his house.” Historical Biography Book:Magnus Hirschfeld: A Portrait of a Pioneer in Sexology Source: Magnus Hirschfeld: A Portrait of a Pioneer in Sexology
“The Weimar Republic gave nectar to the artists, social reformers and progressive people of all classes. They drank it, unaware that they were sitting close to a dungheap. The Nazi time had already begun in the first years of the Republic. Many, perhaps most, of those favoured by the new regime did not notice or did not want to see what was blatantly obvious. Pleasure had never been so sweet, the arts and architecture so advanced, the theatre so rich in new ideas and techniques. And the cabaret held up a mirror to the new times. Freedom from stereotyped convention produced original talents. In the “intimate theatres” and cabarets, elegant diseuses sang risque songs in a spirit of “anything goes”, titillating the senses of “normal” and homosexual people.” Weimar Republic Author:Charlotte Wolff, M.D.
