It makes me feel ashamed of myself. I know this has not been your intention. But all the horror I have inflicted upon your grandparents – and thereby upon you as well – and upon your entire people does not become less horrible because it is our past, but it becomes even more horrible because sadly anti-Semitism is still and again our present – more than it seems to you when you fortunately feel my embrace. And I have learned the wrong lesson from our common history. “Never again war” is the wrong lesson. “Never again lack of freedom” would be the right lesson.
