Famous quotes containing the words jewish and/or history:
“I think the Messianic concept, which is the Jewish offering to mankind, is a great victory. What does it mean? It means that history has a sense, a meaning, a direction; it goes somewhere, and necessarily in a good direction—the Messiah.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
“The history of persecution is a history of endeavors to cheat nature, to make water run up hill, to twist a rope of sand.”
