(Ancient Quotes)
We always see the Holocaust in terms of black-and-white images, barking Germans, cowering Jews. We know very well-known fixed places like Auschwitz, Birkenau, Treblinka, and Beltzec. Instead, war can live in a couple having a spat, when we say, That was a real war. We very rarely have the Holocaust live in the terms of today. And I think that’s a problem, because it becomes ancient history. (Ancient Quotes)
