How can a human being be illegal?

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

I'd rather speak as a student of philosophy. Philosophically it makes no sense, absolutely makes no sense. Why should people inherit evil things when their memories could contain and should invoke good things?

Everybody around us was weeping. Someone began to recite Kaddish, the prayer for the dead. I don't know whether, during the history of the Jewish people, men have ever before recited Kaddish for themselves.

The Holocaust is not a cheap soap opera. The Holocaust is not a romantic novel. It is something else.

My God was never happiness, but to understand and be understood.

I learned to trust the threats of enemies before the promises of friends.
