Status Updates From La notte

I feel like this book is going around and taking me in circles to the same point and close calls ALL THE TIME

But the fact it is a true story is fucked up. And that was my favorite quote. There is another adorable quote where Elie's father is exhausting and resting and he smiles faintly, and Elie says “I will always know that smile. From which world did it come?”
His father just got dissentary though and tried to run away after he lost his mind. Fucked up. “Tell them not to hit me. I haven’t done anything.”

You read one holocaust terror story, you've read them all. I worry these violent stories desensitize youth in a way instead of horrifying them. Fear diffused curiosity just becomes intrigue, not morale.

“I will always know that smile. From which world did it come?”

“A curse upon Germany!” “THAT NIGHT THE SOUP TASTED OF CORPSES!”

“Never shall I forget that night… which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed… Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith, forever.”
