RABBI YISRAEL MEIR LAU
“King David says: from my enemies I have to
be wiser, to know how to oppose them. I have
to learn from them. They taught a lesson, they
started the Kristallnacht in the very heart.
If a leg or an arm is broken – you can survive.
But if, G-d forbid, your heart is ill or broken –
the whole body has no chance. This lesson
we have to understand.”
