In the end, history proved the Jews correct. Across time and place, memory lives on the tenacity of a people’s resolve never to forget–not just with words–but with an endless stream of concrete actions rushing every day, every hour, every minute, every second.

About This Quote

The Jews have had a long and storied history in the world. They have been persecuted and oppressed, but they have also been responsible for creating great works of art and science. A great example of this is the Holocaust. The Jews were responsible for developing some of the most important technology in the world, such as the telephone and the computer.

But, they were also responsible for something else: their determination to remember. They created institutions like Yad Vashem that serve as a memorial to their dead and a way to remember their history.
