Denmark Quotes

Had every Christian in Hitler's Europe followed the example of the king of Denmark and decided to put on the yellow star, there would be today neither despair in the church nor talk of the death of God.

—Fackenheim, Emil L

If only to be born were being invented Merely, or, better still, to concoct oneself From an antique alembic, a receipt.

—Doyle, Charles (Mike)
