"I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart."

Day Fourteen: A Non-fictional Book



"I don't believe the war is simply the work of politicians and capitalists. Oh no, the common man is every bit as guilty; otherwise, people and nations would have rebelled long ago! There's a destructive urge in people, the urge to rage, murder, and kill. And until all of humanity, without exception, undergoes a metamorphosis, wars will continue to be waged, and everything that has been carefully built up, cultivated and grown will be cut down and destroyed, only to start all over again!"
- Anne Frank, The Diary of Anne Frank

It just blows my mind how this little girl was able to share her story with us. The situation she was in, her age, everything just wow. There are no words...I wish I could explain it but I can't =(
