Throughout My Life I Have Cared As

No Heirloom Of Humankind Captures The Past As Do Art And Language.

I Tried For A While To Be An Agricultural Worker And Was Hopelessly Bored. To Me It Was Meaningless. I Would Stand Around In Heaps Of Manure And Sings About The Beauty Of The Work I Wasn't Doing.

I Remain Convinced That I Can Be A True Universalist Only When I Am A Better Jew.

There Is No Role I Cannot Play Except A Midget.

For I Firmly Believe That Jewish Life, Indeed Any Communal Life, Can Only Be Organized According To Democratic Principles.
