Oskar Schindler was a great man. Although at first he just wanted to profit off of the cheap labour and take adavantage of people and the war, he soon saw the horrors of the Holocaust with the liquidation of the ghetto and the way he saw Jews and other cultured people treated. At first he was just greedy however in the end he risked his own life to save people. All the money he made off of the factory helped the people he saved. Basically yes he was a good man.

I think Oskar Schindler was a hero even if it was just for the money as he saved the lives of over 1300 Jews which i think is pretty amazing. I believe the main aspect at the start was the money but as time went on he saw what was happening around him amd saw mercy and found a way to help.

What does the toast in Schindler's list mean?

Stern recognizes immediately Schindler's callousness and greed. Early on, he expresses disdain for Schindler and controlled outrage at his original offer to have Stern run the factory and secure Jewish investors. He refuses to drink with Schindler, making clear he does not approve of Schindler's morals. But Stern's attitude softens as Schindler becomes an active participant in saving the Schindlerjuden, and he eventually sees the good in his employer. He finally does have a drink with Schindler when the two say good-bye after they learn of the closing of the Plaszów labor camp and realize Stern will almost certainly be sent to his death. By accepting a drink, Stern demonstrates his respect for Schindler, and Schindler accepts the finality of Stern's probable fate.
