Jewish Father

Famous quotes containing the words jewish and/or father:

    The exile is a singular, whereas refugees tend to be thought of in the mass. Armenian refugees, Jewish refugees, refugees from Franco Spain. But a political leader or artistic figure is an exile. Thomas Mann yesterday, Theodorakis today. Exile is the noble and dignified term, while a refugee is more hapless.... What is implied in these nuances of social standing is the respect we pay to choice. The exile appears to have made a decision, while the refugee is the very image of helplessness.
    Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    Make us eternal truths receive,
    And practice all that we believe:
    Give us thyself, that we may see
    The Father and the Son, by thee.
    Charlemagne (1559?–1634)
