Million Polish Jews

Famous quotes containing the words million, polish and/or jews:

    Mere human beings can’t afford to be fanatical about anything.... Not even about justice or loyalty. The fanatic for justice ends by murdering a million helpless people to clear a space for his law-courts. If we are to survive on this planet, there must be compromises.
    Storm Jameson (1891–1986)

    You will have to polish up the stars
    with Bab-o and find a new God
    as the earth empties out
    into the gnarled hands of the old redeemer.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    ... the histories of Blacks and Jews in bondage and out of bondage, have been blood histories pursued through our kindred searchings for self-determination. Let this blood be a stain of honor that we share. Let us not now become enemies to ourselves and to each other.
    June Jordan (b. 1936)
