The
trouble with Eichmann was precisely that so many
were like him, and that the many were neither
perverted nor sadistic, that they were, and still
are, terribly and terrifyingly normal. From the
viewpoint of our legal institutions and of our moral
standards of judgment, this normality was much more
terrifying than all the atrocities put together.
-- Hannah Arendt
