Man, foul as the stuff he did was, he had some interesting quotes attributed to him. I always liked:
“I am the punishment of God...If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.”
“The greatest happiness is to scatter your enemy, to drive him before you, to see his cities reduced to ashes, to see those who love him shrouded in tears, and to gather into your bosom his wives and daughters.”
