Today would have been Anne Frank’s 90th birthday. I read her diary when I was 14 and she inspired me so so much. A few years later I created @FacesAuschwitz.
"I must uphold my ideals, for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out."
"I must uphold my ideals, for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out."
This is the book. It’s in bad condition because it was printed in 1974. It belonged to my mother, who asked me to read it when I was 14. I had never heard the word ‘Holocaust’ before then.
I bought this in Amsterdam, in the same bookstore where Otto Frank purchased the diary for Anne’s 13h birthday.
I visited the Anne Frank House as well. Unbelievable experience. I want to go there again.
And, of course...
