In 1936, because of his anti-Nazi views, Bonhoeffer was no longer permitted to teach at the University of Berlin. Two years later, he was forbidden to live in Berlin. In 1940, the German authorities forbade him to speak in public, and he had to report regularly to the police. In 1943, began his arrest and life in Tegel military prison in Berlin.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer who was connected with Valkyrie plotters, once said that if one was riding a bus that was about to go off the road because the bus driver was no longer capable of negotiating the bus. Was it not the obligation of one of the passengers to dash to the front and take the steering wheel to try to keep it from going off the ledge into a deep ravine? Of course, the reason would be to save lives.
