The last quote is below, this on the eve of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, in which a few hundred Jewish civilians took on the Nazi army with homemade weapons, careful planning, and courage rarely seen elsewhere.
One evening, after three months of preparation, three months of wondering and planning and hoping for 
even one day more, a man I knew only as Chaim burst into our bunker, his eyes wide with fear and only two words on his lips: “They’re here.”
The Germans had come.
Just like that, the last of the sand ran out of the hourglass.
Chaim and the other lookouts on the rooftops reported that thousands of soldiers were gathering in Warsaw, setting up camp like we were the new front line of the war, and maybe we were. It suddenly made sense why the Germans waited this long—it took time to organize an army of this size, extensive planning to prepare a ghetto of seventy thousand people for total liquidation. No doubt those were their orders.
By six o’clock, they had the ghetto surrounded.
The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising was about to begin.
