Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.

Time does not heal all wounds; there are those that remain painfully open.
Some writings could sometimes, in moments of grace, attain the quality of deeds.
If you ask me what I want to achieve, it's to create an awareness, which is already the beginning of teaching.
That place, Mr. President, is not your place. Your place is with the victims of the SS.
What hurts the victim most is not the cruelty of the oppressor but the silence of the bystander.

Indifference, to me, is the epitome of evil.
The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference. Because of indifference, one dies before one actually dies. To be in the window and watch people being sent to concentration camps or being attacked in the street and do nothing, that's being dead.
