Quotes by Elaine Stock

“The guilt is blazing within me like a fever. I hate lying about who I am and who I'm supposed to be. I'm torn up with guilt for denying my heritage and my native country while well aware of how so many people have suffered illness, torture, or death, or all three, because, like me, they failed to live up to Aryan standards”
― Elaine Stock, We Shall Not Shatter

“Uncertain times brought out the best and worst in people. This was not the first time she'd behaved boldly. That was a positive aspect of being a deaf person in a hearing world - you had to have confidence, or at least, act in a fashion that led others to believe you were courageous. And she'd perfected her acting abilities a long time ago for the sake of survival”
― Elaine Stock, We Shall Not Shatter

“That was what made friendship special, nearly sacred, and worth nurturing - understanding the other and accompanying them through good times and bad”
