I don’t want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I’ve never met. I want to go on living even after my death!
I simply can’t build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery and death… I think… peace and tranquillity will return again.
Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a person’s character lies in their own hands.
Although I’m only fourteen, I know quite well what I want, I know who is right and who is wrong. I have my opinions, my own ideas and principles, and although it may sound pretty mad from an adolescent, I feel more of a person than a child, I feel quite indepedent of anyone.
I don’t think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains.
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
I love you, with a love so great that it simply couldn’t keep growing inside my heart, but had to leap out and reveal itself in all its magnitude.
In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can’t build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery and death.
In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit.

I’ve learned one thing: you can only really get to know a person after a row. Only then can you judge their true character!
If we bear all this suffering and if there are still Jews left, when it is over, then Jews, instead of being doomed, will be held up as an example.
