We live in the age of communication. Write letters to the editor. Speak to your congressman, to your senator. If you are young, especially young people are taken by this human rights activities. They should organize the universities.

I come from a tradition - from the Jewish tradition, which believes in words, in language, in communication.

I belong to a tradition that believes that the death of a single child is a blemish on creation.

Christians call it the "Sacrifice of Isaac," and Jews call it the "Binding of Isaac."

The opposite of faith is not heresy but indifference

Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky.

It was like a page torn from a history book, from some historical novel about the captivity of babylon or Spanish Inquisition.
