Jew

Famous quotes containing the word jew:

    Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Christian is?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Pessimism is a luxury that a Jew can never allow himself.
    Golda Meir (1898–1978)

    It is painful to be consciously of two worlds. The Wandering Jew in me seeks forgetfulness. I am not afraid to live on and on, if only I do not have to remember too much. A long past vividly remembered is like a heavy garment that clings to your limbs when you would run.
    Mary Antin (1881–1949)
