Nazi slogans, war-time sayings, etc..

Do you know of any Nazi slogans, sayings, phrases, etc.. that were used before the war and during the war?

I'm looking for something that would say "Persist under any bad times", or something along those lines.. or anything interesting..

The only one I can remember off-hand is "arbeit macht frei"... but I'm looking for something different.. to do with persisting under wartime conditions..

How about the inscribtion on the soldiers' belts, I am not sure of the German spelling but I believe it says "Blood and Iron"? What does this saying mean? Blood or sacrifice for the nation? Iron?
