“The road to Sepharad does not end at the border of Spain or Portugal. It ends when the descendant feels, for the first time, that they are no longer in exile. It ends when the shadows of the past are finally met with the light of the present. Beyond the passport lies a future where the Sephardim are no longer a people defined by their expulsion, but a people defined by their return. We have pulled the ancestors from oblivion. Now, it is our turn to walk the path they could only dream of".”

Your temple was destroyed two thousand years ago and you're grieving today?” Yes, as if it had happened only yesterday. “A lot of people have told me the Jews were crazy,” she said. “They were right.” Yes, we're crazy. “It's human nature to forget what hurts you, isn't it? Wasn't forgetfulness a gift of the gods to the ancient world? Without it, life would be intolerable, wouldn't it?” Yes, but the Jews live by other rules.

“Mina morbröder skämtade och skojade och parodierade sig själva genom att härma min mormors bakvända språkbruk. Efter några timmars vilda upptåg var släkten helt förvandlad och raglade omkring av ordberusning. I deras tillstånd av praktisk surrealism blommade den judiska humorn och försatte mig i en nästan svindlande extas. Jazzpianisten spelade klarinett och ingenjören hanterade det enradiga dragspelet medan de övriga slog på kastrullock och spelade på kam. Med rytmen sprittande i kroppen tvingade jag fram fiolen ur likkistan och lät stråken glida över fårtarmarna. Och jag frambringade toner som endast en tvättäkta neger kunde uppskatta. Det var rytmkänslan som brusade fram utan musikaliska ambitioner. Min högsta önskan var att bli neger.”
