“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

“Someday I will understand Auschwitz. This was a brave statement but innocently absurd. No one will ever understand Auschwitz. What I might have set down with more accuracy would have been: Someday I will write about Sophie’s life and death, and thereby help demonstrate how absolute evil is never extinguished from the world. Auschwitz itself remains inexplicable. The most profound statement yet made about Auschwitz was not a statement at all, but a response. The query: “At Auschwitz, tell me, where was God?” And the answer: “Where was man?”

- William Styron,  Sophie’s Choice 

  Today marks 70 years since the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp by the Russians during WWII.
