QUOTES
~Hirsh Glik- Never say this is the final road for you, Though darkening skies may hide the days of blue, The hour that we longed for is so near, Our step beats out the message-- we are here!
~Rebel- "NO! There will be no selection! If some are to live, then all must; if not, we shall defend ourselves"
~Aryeh Wilner- "Come, let us destroy ourselves. Let's not fall into their hands alive!"
~Mala Zimetbaum- "Don't be afraid girl; their end is near. I'm certain, I know. I was free."
~Author- To resist was to risk death, but to submit was to lose all that was life. The young, the religious, the righteous, and the courageous kept faith through the Holocaust, and struck out in any way possible against Nazi injustice. Their faith kept them, their people, and their story, alive.
