Mass Memory Problem

Famous quotes containing the words mass, memory and/or problem:

“No doubt Jews are most obnoxious creatures. Any competent historian or psychoanalyst can bring a mass of incontrovertible evidence to prove that it would have been better for the world if the Jews had never existed.

Is it wise to throw stones at all?”
