Quotes
“The Ustaše movement is based on religion. Therefore, our acts stem from our devotion to religion and the Roman Catholic church.”, the chief Ustaše ideologist Mile Budak, 13 July 1941.

“The descendants of those who hated Jesus, who condemned him to death, who crucified him and immediately persecuted his disciples, are guilty of greater excesses than those of their forefathers. Greed is growing. The Jews who led Europe and the entire world to disaster - morally, culturally and economically - developed an appetite which nothing less than the world as a whole could satisfy ... Love has its limits. The movement for freeing the world from Jews is a movement for the renaissance of human dignity. The all-wise and Almighty God is behind this movement.”, Franjo Kralik, published in one of Ivan Sarić's Sarajevo diocese newspapers, Katolicki Tjednik (Catholic Weekly).

“God, who directs the destiny of nations and controls the hearts of Kings, has given us Ante Pavelić and moved the leader of a nation that is friendly and allied to us, Adolf Hitler, to use his victorious troops to disperse our oppressors and enable us to create an Independent State of Croatia. Glory be to God, our gratitude to Adolf Hitler, and infinite loyalty to our leader, Ante Pavelić.”, Croatian Catholic press covering Ante Pavelić.
