There are no drive-thru breakthroughs. Breakthroughs take time.

Every time I plant a seed, He say kill it before it grow, he say kill it before they grow.

What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise for which we are later, in the fullness of time and understanding, very grateful for!

If you are going through a time of discouragement, there is a time or great personal growth ahead.

And so for a time it looked as if all the adventures were coming to and end; but that was not to be.

If we bear all this suffering and if there are still Jews left, when it is over, then Jews, instead of being doomed, will be held up as an example.

Sometimes I believe that God wants to try me, both now and later on; I must become good through my own efforts, without examples and without good advice.

It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

I had to hold my head up high and put a bold face on things, but the thoughts keep coming anyways.

Work, love, courage and hope, Make me good and help me cope!

Be brave! Let's remember our duty and perform it without complaint. There will be a way out. God has never deserted our people. Through the ages Jews have had to suffer, but through the ages they've gone on living, and the centuries of suffering have only made them stronger. The weak shall fall and the strong shall survive and not be defeated!

This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
