Jew

Famous quotes containing the word jew:

“Is discord going to show itself while we are still fighting, is the Jew once again worth less than another?

—Anne Frank (1929–1945)

“Being a Jew is like walking in the wind or swimming: you are touched at all points and conscious everywhere.”
—Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)

“To become a celebrity is to become a brand name. There is Ivory Soap, Rice Krispies, and Philip Roth. Ivory is the soap that floats; Rice Krispies the breakfast cereal that goes snap-crackle-pop; Philip Roth the Jew who masturbates with a piece of liver.”
—Philip Roth (b. 1933)
