You are human beings and the future is in you, you carry tomorrow in you.
-
Be fraternal, because that is the only way it will work. It doesn’t matter how people look like.
-
You are all human beings, you can have dark-skinned friends, why not?
-
That will also help you to work better, work more seriously.
-
Be fraternal with each other no matter what origin you are from.

Liberation at Auschwitz; coming home
-
Liberation came in 1945.
-
But it wasn’t quite that simple because there were all these
-
Kapos that had taken on this bad habit of beating and massacring and liquidating people.
-
They played this role until the end. So again we lost many people.
-
Out of the 1175 of us deportees I think 19 returned.
-
Gradually we felt a certain degree of liberation, but we were in such a state, we barely reacted.
-
Take my case: I weighed 70kg/72kg upon my arrival, I used to do exercise, to bike, I was strong.
-
In the end I had reached half my weight: 35kg/36kg.
-
Under those conditions, so weak, things don’t work the same way anymore, including reactions and the way the brain works.
-
But we also started to take deep breaths of fresh air, telling ourselves that it was over.
-
When we were liberated, they put us onto wagons, depending on the region we were going to.
-
I went back to Rouen. There were three or four of us. We had lost hundreds of friends.
-
Upon our arrival there were ambulances waiting for us, taking us where we told them to. In my case, that was to my parents.
-
The arrival at home was different for each of us. The parents were all different from each other of course.
