Education in the key to preventing the cycle of violence and hatred that marred the 20th century from repeating itself in the 21st century.

I've given my life to the principle and the ideal of memory, and remembrance.

I imagine, like all his predecessors, Barak Obama would like to achieve greatness in bringing peace in the Middle East. I hope it will not be at the expense of Israel.

Had the situation not been so tragic, we might have laughed.

In spite of despair, hope must exist. In spite of suffering, humanity must prevail. And in spite of all the differences in the world, the worst enemy, the worst peril, is indifference.

I was convinced that hatred among nations and among people perished in Auschwitz. It didn't. The victims died but the haters are still here.

In those dark times, one rose to the very heights of humanity by simply remaining human.
