Quote by Azriel Feuerstein

“Those of us directed towards the right were lined up in threes with much shooting and beating. I was in the first row, at the platform’s edge. Suddenly, we see a group of older women and women with children nearing the road, under the platform. In the first row I see my mother supported on both sides by two friends. She too becomes aware of me. And out of the throat of this reticent, soft-spoken woman who I don’t remember ever raising her voice, breaks out a terrible, desperate, piercingly loud, howling shout: ‘GYURIKA!!!”

“Musel jsem se dívat na průzory do plynových komor a sám sledovat proces smrti... Znovu a znovu se mě ptali, jak se já a moji lidé na tyto operace můžeme nepřetržitě dívat a jak jsme schopni to vydržet. Má stálá odpověď zněla, že je to otázka železného odhodlání, s jakým musíme plnit Hitlerovy rozkazy, a takové odhodlání že lze získat pouze potlačením všech lidských citů.”

“... e in quell'aria dall'odore acre, da lontano, riconobbi senza alcun dubbio il profumo della zuppa di rape. È stato un peccato, perché quella vista, quel profumo hanno scatenato nel mio petto ormai già sordo un sentimento il cui impeto è riuscito a spillare ai miei occhi aridi un paio di gocce che hanno scaldato la mia faccia fredda e bagnata. E qualunque sforzo di valutare e ragionare, di ricorrere al buonsenso e alla lucidità mentale non sono serviti – dentro di me non ho potuto evitare di sentire la voce furtiva, in un certo senso vergognosa della sua stessa insensatezza, che tuttavia diventava sempre più ostinata, la voce di un desiderio sommesso quanto ardente: poter vivere ancora un pochino in quel bel campo di concentramento.”

“Propaganda may be defined as opposed to rational argument; argument based upon facts. Argument based on facts aims at producing an intellectual conviction; propaganda aims, above all, at producing reflex action. It is aimed at bypassing the rational choice based upon knowledge of facts and getting directly at the solar plexus, so to speak, and affecting the subconscious.”
