More quotes by Elie Wiesel
In those dark times, one rose to the very heights of humanity by simply remaining human.
Elie Wiesel
I don't think I should accept other people's suffering because I suffered. Just the opposite, because I suffered I don't want others to suffer.
Elie Wiesel
Writing should not be routine writing should actually be the opposite of procedural because otherwise the written word would become a routine word.
Elie Wiesel
It was the beginning of the war. I was twelve years old, my parents were alive, and God still dwelt in our town.
Elie Wiesel
Paris: city of encounters, of furtive and painful discoveries. All isms converge there, including the anti-isms, all the revolutionaries too, including the counterrevolutionaries .
Elie Wiesel
I believe that all the survivors are mad. One time or another their madness will explode. You cannot absorb that much madness and not be influenced by it. That is why the children of survivors are so tragic. I see them in school. They don't know how
Elie Wiesel
You shouldn’t act as a spokesperson for someone who’s trying to impose his will on you.
Elie Wiesel
I've worked with five Presidents in America, all of them I ask the same question always: Why didn't the American allies bomb the railways going to Auschwitz?
Elie Wiesel
When I have my manuscript finished, more or less, I type it myself, with two fingers. I type fast with two fingers. And then when it's ready, I reread, recorrect, and retype it. Everything is my own work. I do not give it to secretaries or to typists.
Elie Wiesel
Today again the teacher is the important thing, but on the other hand anti-Semitism is growing today. No doubt about it. All over the world, especially in Europe, and it's true they begin with anti-Israeli attitudes and then it's so strong that it runs over and becomes anti-Semitic.
Elie Wiesel
[Tibet] never sought any territory. All it wanted is the conquest of the soul, that people should attain a kind of inner sovereignty, inner independence, inner freedom. And inner strength to attain the absolute.
Elie Wiesel
Even in darkness it is possible to create light.
Elie Wiesel
Take sides. Neutrality always serves the oppressor and never the oppressed.
Elie Wiesel
There are moments when I think it will never end, that it will last indefinitely. It's like the rain. Here the rain, like everything else, suggests permanence and eternity. I say to myself: it's raining today and it's going to rain tomorrow and the next day, the next week and the next century.
Elie Wiesel
did everything I could in my life to be immune to hatred, because hatred is a cancer.
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
The philosophers are wrong: it is not words that kill, it is silence.
Elie Wiesel
One person of integrity can make a difference.
Elie Wiesel
Today, as yesterday, a nation is judged by its attitude towards refugees.
Elie Wiesel
What is man? Hope turned to dust. No. What is man? Dust turned to hope.
