Deutsche Übersetzung

Wir freuen uns, dass wir in einigen tausend Jahren unseres Bestehens als Sprachnutzer eine gewisse Distanz zurückgelegt haben, aber es sollte eine tiefere Befriedigung oder sogar eine Erheiterung sein, zu erkennen, dass wir noch eine solche Distanz vor uns haben.

Phil Harris

There is a biblical injunction to tell your children, but the sages who created the Seder several thousand years ago understood that it had to be more than just speaking: that in order for something to connect so emotionally in human beings, it had to be relived.

Gil Marks
