Granted that every war is madness-civil war, fratricide, is the worst of all; it reaches deeper into ugliness, cruelty and absurdity.

I do not recall a Jewish home without a book on the table.

How could I say to Him: Blessed be Thou, Almighty, Master of the Universe, who chose us among all nations to be tortured day and night, to watch as our fathers, our mothers, our brothers end up in furnaces? Praised be Thy Holy Name, for having chosen us to be slaughtered on Thine altar?

When a person doesn't have gratitude, something is missing in his or her humanity.

You cannot write in more than one language. Words don't come out as well.

There is much to be done, there is much that can be done... one person of integrity can make a difference.

No one is as capable of gratitude as one who has escaped the kingdom of night.
