"'Yisgadal, Veyiskadash, shmey raba... May his name be celebrated and sanctified...' whispered my father. For the first time, I felt anger rising within me . Why should I sanctify His name? The Almighty, the eternal and terrible Master of the Universe, chose to be silent. What was there to thank Him for?" (Wiesel p.33)
Life in Auschwitz
"They were forced to dig huge trenches. When they had finished their work, the men from the Gestapo began theirs. Without passion or haste, they shot their prisoners, who were forced to approach the trench one by one and offer their necks. Infants were tossed in the air as targets for the machine guns." (Wiesel p. 29)
