More quotes by Elie Wiesel
Some events do take place but are not true others are, although they never occurred.
Elie Wiesel
The sins I regret the most are the one's I didn't commit.
Elie Wiesel
Once you bring life into the world, you must protect it. We must protect it by changing the world.
Elie Wiesel
[Memory] is a passion no less powerful or pervasive than love. It is [the ability] to live in more than one world, to prevent the past from fading, and to call upon the future to illuminate it.
Elie Wiesel
Life is really fascinated only by death. It vibrates only when it comes in contact with death.
Elie Wiesel
Be careful with words, they're dangerous. Be wary of them. They begat either demons or angels. It's up to you to give life to one or the other. Be careful, I tell you, nothing is as dangerous as giving free rein to words
Elie Wiesel
When has religion ever been unifying? Religion has introduced many wars in this world, enough bloodshed and violence.
Elie Wiesel
I listen to music when I write. I need the musical background. Classical music. I'm behind the times. I'm still with Baroque music, Gregorian chant, the requiems, and with the quartets of Beethoven and Brahms. That is what I need for the climate, for the surroundings, for the landscape: the music.
Elie Wiesel
If life is not a celebration, why remember it ? If life --- mine or that of my fellow man --- is not an offering to the other, what are we doing on this earth?
Elie Wiesel
I'll tell you what: I believe mysticism is a very serious endeavor. One must be equipped for it.
Elie Wiesel
Take sides. Neutrality always serves the oppressor and never the oppressed.
Elie Wiesel
Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.
Elie Wiesel
I have not lost faith in God. I have moments of anger and protest. Sometimes I've been closer to him for that reason.
Elie Wiesel
Oh, it is not death that frightens me, but the impossibility of imparting some meaning to my past.
Elie Wiesel
The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
Elie Wiesel
Holy War is a contradiction of terms.
Elie Wiesel
No one may speak for the dead, no one may interpret their mutilated dreams and visions.
Elie Wiesel
You cross a border and the policeman or the frontier policeman look at you, What are you doing here? Why are you coming? How long will you stay? Well, if I had nearly enough years, I would write a novel about being a refugee.
Elie Wiesel
Even in darkness it is possible to create light.
Elie Wiesel
You take a text, you explore it, you enter it with all your heart and all your mind.
Elie Wiesel
