Marked White

Famous quotes containing the words marked and/or white:

“If we are marked to die, we are enough
To do our country loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.”

“The symmetrical piles of white bodies,
the round white breast-shapes of the heaps,
the smell of the smoke, the dogs the wires the
rope the hunger. It had happened to others.
There was a word for us. I was: a Jew.”
