The Boy in the Striped Pajamas quotes

  • Herr Liszt: Yes Bruno?

    Bruno: I don't understand, the Jew is down to this one man?

    Herr Liszt: The Jew here means the entire Jewish race. If it was just this one man I'm sure something would be done about him.

    Bruno: There is such thing as a nice Jew isn't there?

  • Father: My work is very important to our country and to you. We're working very hard to make the world better for you.
