Writer George Orwell confessed he found something 'deeply appealing' about Adolf Hitler. Where Martha Dodd was struck by Hitler's 'weak, soft face,' Orwell discerned 'a pathetic dog-like face, the face of a man suffering under intolerable wrongs.' All this is a reminder that psychopaths have been known to possess engaging qualities, and that Hitler was no less repellent for not sporting fangs.
