Quotes

The establishment of the modern State of Israel has removed us from the,insulated world of the ghetto and has exposed Judaism and the Jewish,people to the judgment of the world. We can no longer hide our,weaknesses and petty failings. We live in total exposure.

We must therefore define who we are by what we do and not by any,obsession with the long and noble history of Jewish suffering. In,coming back to our land and rebuilding our nation, we have chosen to,give greater moral weight to our actions in the present than to noble,dreams of the future or to the memories of our heroic past.
