There is a coalition of anti-Semitism today, the extreme left, the extreme right and in the middle the huge corpus of Islam. I'm worried, I go around with a very heavy heart.

More quotes by Elie Wiesel
Humanity would never tolerate it
Elie Wiesel
When I see a child who is hungry, I see a person who is humiliated.
Elie Wiesel
I don't see the junk youth. I only meet students, and even those who are not formally at the university, if they come to listen to me, they come to read me, it means they are not junk students.
Elie Wiesel
It always hurts when you lose a secret.
Elie Wiesel
A word is worth a thousand pictures.
Elie Wiesel
A voice behind me asked, Where is God? Where is He? Where can He be now? and a voice within me answered: Where? Here He is - He has been hanged here, on these gallows.
Elie Wiesel
There is Israel, for us at least. What no other generation had, we have. We have Israel in spite of all the dangers, the threats and the wars, we have Israel. We can go to Jerusalem. Generations and generations could not and we can.
Elie Wiesel
Only the guilty are guilty: the children of killers are not killers, but children.
Elie Wiesel
Indifference is the sign of sickness, a sickness of the soul more contagious than any other.
Elie Wiesel
It all happened so fast. The ghetto. The deportation. The sealed cattle car. The fiery altar upon which the history of our people and the future of mankind were meant to be sacrificed.
Elie Wiesel
It is obvious that the war which Hitler and his accomplices waged was a war not only against Jewish men, women, and children, but also against Jewish religion, Jewish culture, Jewish tradition, therefore Jewish memory.
Elie Wiesel
In Talmudic literature, certainly in the beginning, he was like a human being - except he was a serpent. But he was talking and walking and probably dreaming.
Elie Wiesel
Words can be turned into spears. They can be turned into prayers. It's a strange world that you are in. But you deal with words.
Elie Wiesel
He explained to me with great insistence that every question posessed a power that did not lie in the answer.
Elie Wiesel
You know how many reasons we have to be desperate and despairing, the world is not learning anything. We have seen that.
Elie Wiesel
We didn't really differ [with Frank Moore Cross] because we have the same love of the text. We share that love.
Elie Wiesel
What is man? Hope turned to dust. No. What is man? Dust turned to hope.
Elie Wiesel
If there is one person on the planet who still is suffering from loneliness and from pain or despair, and we don't know about it, or we don't want to know about it, then something is wrong with the world.
Elie Wiesel
The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. Indifference creates evil. Hatred is evil itself. Indifference is what allows evil to be strong, what gives it power.
Elie Wiesel
Eternity is the place where questions and answers become one.
Elie Wiesel
