That my children are going to be gassed!" And he says "Madam! Do you think we are barbarians?"

• Rudolf Vrba - Czechoslovak Jew : You see, this was a moment when Moses Sonerschien, the Rabbi's son, spoke to his God. "God show them your power - this is against You!" And nothing happened! And then he said, "There is no God."
