Death to All. Under Rehse's cold eye, leniency was rarely a problem. He sat in judgment of a schizophrenic boy who wrote from a juvenile asylum requesting "weapons, munitions, cameras, explosives and a diamond ring" to overthrow the Nazi regime; of a Catholic priest who dispatched an appeal for a "humane peace" to a Swedish bishop; of an internationally famous biologist who told a friend that he expected the Third Reich to crumble.

Unlike the aloof Pius XII, Paul almost never dines alone; unlike even John, who affected a quaint Renaissance mode of dress, Paul seldom wears anything more elaborate than a simple white cassock.
