There are victories of the soul and spirit. Sometimes, even if you lose, you win.

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

I describe incidents which may or may not have happened but which are true.

... True, we are often too weak to stop injustices; but the least we can do is to protest against them. True, we are too poor to eliminate hunger; but in feeding one child, we protest against hunger. True, we are too timid and powerless to take on all the guards of all the political prisons in the world; but in offering our solidarity to one prisoner we denounce all the tormentors. True, we are powerless against death; but as long as we help one man, one woman, one child live one hour longer in safety and dignity, we affirm man's [woman's] right to live.

I want to go back to the child I used to be, and to read with the same naiveté [the Pentateuch]. I want to leave science aside and go back to the pure perception offered to me in the text that is waiting there for me year after year.

It's easier to be conformist naturally; it's easier except for those who don't like conformism.

Which is worse? Killing with hate or killing without hate?
