And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and could be, if there weren't any other people living in the world.

No one ever became poor from giving.
Anne Frank
Image
You can always-always-give something, even if it's a simple act of kindness! If everyone were to give in this way and didn't scrimp on kindly words, there would be much more love and justice in the world!

I must work, so as not to be a fool, to get on, to become a journalist, because that's what I want!... I can't imagine that I would have to lead the same sort of life as Mummyand all the women who do their work and are then forgotten. I must have something besides a husband and children, something that I can devote myself to!

Anne Frank

But I won't bore you any longer on the subject of old men. It won't make things any better and all my plans of revenge (such as disconnecting the lamp, shutting the door, hiding his clothes) must be abandoned in order to keep the peace. Oh, I'm becoming so sensible!

We lit the stove a few days ago and the entire room is filled with smoke. I prefer central heating, and I'm probably not the only one.
Anne Frank
Image
I feel wicked sleeping in a warm bed, while my dearest friends have been knocked down or have fallen into a gutter somewhere out in the cold night. I get frightened when I think of close friends who have now been delivered into the hands of the cruelest brutes that walk the earth. And all because they are Jews!

At any rate, Daddy usually comes to my defence. Without him I wouldn't be able to stick out here.
Anne Frank

You can always give something, even if it is only kindness.
Anne Frank

I simply can't imagine the world will ever be normal again for us. I do talk about after the war, but it's as if I'm talking about a castle in the air, something that can never come true.
Anne Frank
Image
leave me in peace, let me sleep one night at least without my pillow being wet with tears, my eyes burning and my head throbbing
Anne Frank

I simply can't build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery and death... I think... peace and tranquillity will return again.
