Why should some people have such a hard time during their few years on this earth?
Anne Frank

Yes, there is no doubt that paper is patient and as I don't intend to show this cardboard-covered notebook, bearing the proud name of diary, to anyone, unless I find a real friend, boy or girl, probably nobody cares. And now I come to the root of the matter, the reason for my starting a diary: it is that I have no such real friend.

Writing in a diary is a really strange experience for someone like me. Not only because I’ve never written anything before, but also because it seems to me that later on neither I nor anyone else will be interested in the musings of a thirteen-year old school girl. Oh well, it doesn’t matter. I feel like writing.

Why are millions spent on the war each day, while not a penny is available for ... artists or the poor? Why do people have to starve when mountians of food are rotting away in other parts of the world? Oh, why are people so crazy?

Is discord going to show itself while we are still fighting, is the Jew once again worth less than another? Oh, it is sad, very sad, that once more, for the umpteenth time, the old truth is confirmed: What one Christian does is his own responsibility, what one Jew does is thrown back at all Jews.

Boys will be boys. And even that wouldn't matter if only we could prevent girls from being girls.

The reason for my starting a diary is that I have no real friend.

I can shake off everything as I write my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn.
Anne Frank

Thinking about the suffering of those you hold dear can reduce you to tears in fact, you could spend the whole day crying.
Anne Frank
Image
I've found that there is always some beauty left-in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself these can all help you. Look at these things, then you find yourself again, and God, and then you regain your balance. And whoever is happy will make others happy too. He who has courage and faith will never perish in misery!

A person who's happy will make others happy a person who has courage and faith will never die in misery

Dead people receive more flowers than the living ones because the regret is stronger than gratitude.

How wonderful it is that we can start doing good at this very moment.
Anne Frank

Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.
