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.
Elie WieselI have tried to keep memory alive... I have tried to fight those who would forget. Because if we forget, we are guilty, we are accomplices.
Elie WieselAll those - or most of those - who went through the experience during the Second World War - they want to remember more - more and more. It's never enough because we feel that we have to tell the story. And no one can tell the story fully.
Elie WieselHope is like peace. It is not a gift from God. It is a gift only we can give one another.
Elie WieselNever shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed....Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never.
