Here are 4 of his quotes:

It is natural that people do not want to be involved with us too much. There is no problem down to the smallest egotistical longing which the Gestapo cannot solve. Regarded in this way we are, if a joke is permitted, looked upon as a cross between a general maid and the dustbin of the Reich.

So far you have been treated as an officer and a gentleman, but don't think that this will go on if you don't behave better than you have done. You have two hours left in which to confess everything. If you don't, I shall hand you over to the Gestapo, who are used to dealing with such gangsters and criminals - you won't enjoy their methods a bit.

Reinhard Heydrich

The world is just a barrel-organ which the Lord God turns Himself. We all have to dance to the tune which is already on the drum.
