The truth is that in America, the Jew is a figment of the Christian imagination.

How often do we tell our own life story? How often do we adjust, embellish, make sly cuts? And the longer life goes on, the fewer are those around to challenge our account, to remind us that our life is not our life, merely the story we have told about our life.

沉默是上帝的语言，其他一切都是拙劣的翻译。
