A quote about the holocaust

Answer 1

These are quotes from Holocaust survivors; not the people such as Miep Gies and Oskar Schindler who protected the Jews.

• Solomon Radasky "Out of the 78 people in my family, I am the only one to survive. My parents had 3 boys and 3 girls: My parents were Jacob and Toby; my brothers were Moishe and Baruch, and my sisters were Sarah, Rivka and Leah. They were all killed."
• Leslie Meisels "Silence helps the oppressors."
• Solomon Radasky "After a few days some people could not take it anymore, and they fell down in the road. If they could not get up, they were shot where they lay. After work we had to carry the bodies back. If 1,000 went out to work, a 1,000 had to come back."
• Simon Wiesenthal "For me, the Holocaust was not only a Jewish tragedy, but also a human tragedy."
• Sara Atzmon "Love gives us wings to soar above it all."
• Elie Wiesel "No human race is superior, no religious faith is inferior. All collective judgments are wrong. Only racists make them."
• Joszf Paczynski (on why he didn't kill Commandant Hoess, although he had multiple opportunities) "Yes, I could have done it. But I realized very well what the consequences would be. All my family and half of the camp would be killed. And of course I realized if this silent son of a b**** would go, there will be another man who will take his place."
• Simon Wiesenthal "For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing."
• Elie Wiesel "For me, every hour is grace. And I feel gratitude in my heart each time I can meet someone and look at his or her smile."
• David Faber "This is why I'm pouring my heart out to you. To make this a better world, not the king of world I lived in. Not with hate, all I want from you is to bring up your own children without hat. I beg of you. That is all I want."

A Poem: (translated)When the Nazis Came for Me

by Pastor Martin Niemöller

When the Nazis came for the communists,

I remained silent;

I was not a communist..

When they locked up the social democrats,

I remained silent;

I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,

I did not speak out;

I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,

I didn't speak up,

because I wasn't a Jew.

When they came for me,

there was no-one left

to speak out.
