Gerda Weissmann Klein quotes:

Imagine a world, in which your entire possession is one raspberry, and you give it to your friend.

Survival is both an exalted privilege and a painful burden.

I pray you never stand at any crossroads in your own lives, but if you do, if the darkness seems so total, if you think there is no way out, remember, never ever give up. The darker the night, the brighter the dawn, and when it gets really, really dark, this is when one sees the true brilliance of the stars.

Pain should not be wasted.

I had created a happy world of make-believe around me during the long years of loneliness, a world of beauty and love. It had helped me to survive, this lovely world that was to be mine when the war was over.
