Quotes from The Man in the Glass House, released today, author Mark
Lamster, that provide insight into Philip Johnson's Nazi past:
“The Nazis were ‘Daylight into the ever-darkening atmosphere of
contemporary America.’” Philip Johnson, pg. 165
“Submission to an artistic dictator is better than an anarchy of selfish
personal opinion.” PJ, pg. 93
“When interviewed in 1942, Johnson’s former secretary Ruth Merrill told the
FBI that Johnson believed ‘the fate of the country’ rested on his
shoulders, and that he wanted to be the ‘Hitler’ in the United States.”
ML, pg. 139
