I hated the brutality, the sadism, and the insanity of Nazism. I just couldn't stand by and see people destroyed. I did what I could, what I had to do, what my conscience told me I must do. That's all there is to it. Really, nothing more.

Quote posted in Quotes & Aphorisms (Holocaust Remembrance Day)
The persecution of Jews in occupied Poland meant that we could see horror emerging gradually in many ways.

With people behaving like pigs, I felt the Jews were being destroyed. I had to help them. There was no choice.
