    The taste of religion is too strong, and it may be incomprehensible for people without faith. At the beginning, I saw the high commander with swords drawn, thinking that this time he was a wild boy, which was different from the talented, gentle and poor commander of the past, but after seeing it, I was shocked, this perplexity swayed, but his heart was still determined as a Jew. Danny, the high...

The Believer quotes

  • Mrs. Frankel: What do you think you would have done if you had been there?

    Daniel Balint: Not what he did. Just stand there and watch?

    Mrs. Frankel: How do you know? You've never been tested like he has. Here in this rich, safe, stupid country it is so easy to imagine oneself a hero. But, you have no idea what it was like. You can't conceive of it. Everything, all of Europe, was designed to break one's will. Millions went to camps many stronger, braver than you. They did nothing. Just as you would have done nothing.

  • Daniel Balint: In the mere three centuries since these guys emerged from the ghettos of Europe, they've taken us from a world built on order and reason and hurled us into a chaos of class warfare, irrational urges and relativity, a world where the very existence of matter and meaning is in doubt.

    Daniel Balint: Why? Because it is the deepest impulse of the Jewish soul to unravel the very fabric of life until nothing is left but thread, nothing but nothingness.

    Daniel Balint: Nothingness without end.
