grandfather (Friedrich) Quotes

“Grandfather looked at us. Then he said, ‘We are Christians. Bear in mind that the Jews crucified our Lord.’ Here Father interjected, ‘But not the Schneiders!‘”

“Grandfather got up from the chair. He leaned on the table with his knuckles. So sharply it came out like a snarl, he ordered, ‘I do not wish the boy to associate with this Jew!’ He sat down again as suddenly as he had stood up.”
