They ignored the beadle, they ignored the rumor mill, they ignored the radio, they ignored the final solution.

"There are a thousand and one gates allowing entry into the orchard of mystical truth. Every human being has his own gate. He must not err and wish to enter the orchard through a gate other than his own. That would present a danger not only for the one entering but also for those who are already inside." (page 5) This is my favorite quote because it shows that if only one person was to do wrong they would punish everyone around so it wouldn't happen again.

I wonder why Moishe the Beadle and all the other Jews were so optimistic to the war and everything that was happening around them. I wonder if it was because they didn't know what was going on and when someone told them what was really going on everyone thought that one person was crazy because the people were told everything was going to be fine and nothing bad was going to happen.

I was surprised that Moishe's dad didn't want him to be part of Kabbalah. (page 4) Moishe states "one day I asked my father to find me a master who could guide me in my studies of Kabbalah. Then Moishe's dad states "You are too young for that. Maimonides tells us that one must be thirty before venturing into the world of mysticism, a world fraught with peril. First you must study the basic subjects, those you are able to comprehend."

"There are eighty of you in the car," "If anyone goes missing, you will all be shot, like dogs." (page 24) This quote stood out to me because it shows how far the German's went to keep everyone from getting away. The German's would really shoot everyone just because someone disappeared, even if it was only one person the German's would punish everyone.

"Did you not know what was in store for you here in Auschwitz? You didn't know? In 1944? True. We didn't know. Nobody had told us. (page 30) This quote stood out to me was because the people was told about what goes on in Auschwitz but they said they didn't know because nobody wanted to listen when they was told what was going on, everyone thought he was crazy and just seeing things.

The man in charge had said "Comrades, you are now in the concentration camp Auschwitz. Ahead of you lies a long road paved with suffering. Don't lose hope. You have already eluded the worst danger: the selection. Therefore, muster your strength and keep your faith. We shall all see the day of liberation. Have faith in life, a thousand times faith. By driving out despair, you will move away from death. Hell does not live forever and now, here is a prayer, or rather a piece of advice: let there be camaraderie among you." My reaction to this was shocking because usually the leaders aren't this nice and willful speaking to the Jewish prisoners but he soon got kicked out because he was to nice to the people when they was suppose to have hard discipline.

I believe that when the women was yelling that she seen fire when there was no fire around the people should have listened to her. The people on the train should have listened to her because she seen something that they all was going to see. Instead of thinking the woman is crazy, loud and annoying they should have asked her what was going on because then maybe they would have known what was coming for them. The people wouldn't have been going into this whole thing blind to what was happening.

My reaction to when they tried to resolve the women screaming and yelling by hitting, choking, and stuffing things in her mouth was that it was horrifying that they was treating such a person like crap just because they couldn't take her screaming about the fire she was seeing. Maybe if they would have listened to what she was saying they wouldn't have went to the camp thinking everything was going to be fine and nothing was going to happen to them, they would have went to the camp knowing that something bad was going to happen, they would have known that what the German's were telling them was all a lie but they didn't listen to the women screaming about the fire.

The cause is that Elie had to get his golden tooth taken out by the dentist but he kept telling the dentist he was sick and that he would come back when he felt better.(page 48) The next time he went back to the dentist on his own like he promised he told the dentist yet again he had felt sick the dentist gave him another few days to feel better but he had also told Elie when you come back the third time, if you give me the tooth i will give you bread. Then soon after Elie left, the dentist got caught and was put to death because he was doing this for his own benefits which was illegal there. So since Elie kept putting off the dentist by telling him he was sick Elie got to keep his golden tooth, and he is now going to use it for good when he needs something.

My reaction to the author's word choice for (page 34) "Never shall i forget that night, the first night in camp, that turned my life into one long night seven times sealed. Never shall i forget that smoke. Never shall i forget the small faces of the children whose bodies i saw transformed into the smoke under a silent sky.

My reaction to when they went to hang a child the SS seemed more worried and seemed like he cared more then they usually do.( page 64) "This time the Lagerkapo refused to act as executioner. Three SS took his place. The three condemned prisoners together stepped onto the chairs. In unison the nooses were placed around their necks. (page 65) But when they hung the child he was to light and was still breathing, he had remained alive for more then half an hour fighting between life and death.

My reaction to a resolution of what they did to Elie's father when they found out he couldn't march to "left, right, left, right. When the guards found out that Elie's dad couldn't march the right way they would make him get in the line and march with everyone else and they watched his every move, every time they seen that he wouldn't march right they would beat him and whoop him with anything they had handy. (page 55) My reaction to this is that it was to much, they could have helped him or many of the other people around could have helped him instead of just Elie trying to help him in a panic.

My reaction to them deciding to fast which is very dangerous in that place. (page 69) "The day of Atonement. Should we fast? The question is the hotly debated. To fast could mean a more certain, more rapid death. In, this place we were always fasting. It was Yom Kippur year-round. But there were those who said we should fast precisely because it was dangerous to do so. We need to show god that even here, in hell, we were capable of singing His praises.

My question is why was the SS officer being so nice, giving them gifts, and letting them have more freedom the usual. (page 69) The SS offered us a beautiful present for the new year. We had just got back from work. As soon as we passes the camp's entrance, we sensed something out of the ordinary in the air. The roll call was shorter than usual. The evening soup was distributed at great speed, swallowed as quickly.

"Your lucky to to have been brought here so late. Today, this is paradise compared to what the camp was two years ago. Back then, Buna was a veritable hell. No water, no blankets, less soup and bread. At night, we slept almost naked and the temperature was thirty below. We were collecting corpses by the hundreds everyday. Work was very hard. Today this is a little paradise. The Kapos back then had orders to kill a certain number of prisoners every day. And every week selection. A merciless selection... Yes you are lucky."(page 70) This quote stuck out to me because it shows how much the camp has changed how how uncaring they use to be.
