Hilberg on the Holocaust

“Around us, everyone was weeping. Someone began to recite the Kaddish, the prayer for the dead. I do not know if it has ever happened before, in the long history of the Jews, that people have ever recited the prayer for the dead for themselves.” - Elie Wiesel, Holocaust survivor, in his book, Night, page 31
