“I've reached the point where I hardly care whether I live or die. The world will keep on turning without me, and I can't do anything to change events anyway.”
Anne Frank“How noble and good everyone could be if, every evening before falling asleep, they were to recall to their minds the events of the whole day and consider exactly what has been good and bad. Then without realizing it, you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day.”
Anne Frank“Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.”
Anne Frank“The question is very understandable, but no one has found a satisfactory answer to it so far. Yes, why do they make still more gigantic planes, still heavier bombs and, at the same time, prefabricated houses for reconstruction? Why should millions be spent daily on the war and yet there's not a penny available for medical services, artists, or for poor people?Why do some people have to starve, while there are surpluses rotting in other parts of the world? Oh, why are people so crazy?”
Anne Frank“There's only one rule you need to remember: laugh at everything and foget everybody else! It sound egotistical, but it's actually the only cure for those suffering from self-pity.”
Anne Frank, The Diary of Anne Frank“Although I'm only fourteen, I know quite well what I want, I know who is right and who is wrong. I have my opinions, my own ideas and principles, and although it may sound pretty mad from an adolescent, I feel more of a person than a child, I feel quite indepedent of anyone.”
Anne Frank, The Diary of Anne Frank“In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit.”
Anne Frank, The Diary of Anne Frank“The book was turned to the page with Anne Frank's name, but what got me about it was the fact that right beneath her name there were four Aron Franks. FOUR. Four Aron Franks without museums, without historical markers, without anyone to mourn them. I silently resolved to remember and pray for the four Aron Franks as long as I was around.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars“No one has ever become poor by giving.”
Anne Frank, diary of Anne Frank: the play“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”
Anne Frank, Anne Frank's Tales from the Secret Annex“I've reached the point where I hardly care whether I live or die. The world will keep on turning without me, and I can't do anything to change events anyway.”
