Famous quotes containing the word wiesel:
“Oh, I love Proust. We all learned from him how to go back in time. The difference is that Proust stayed in his room, and he observed himself.

Whatever happens, happens to us.”

“The opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it’s indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it’s indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it’s indifference.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
“Nobody is stronger, nobody is weaker than someone who came back. There is nothing you can do to such a person because whatever you could do is less than what has already been done to him. We have already paid the price.”
