Primo Levi Quotes

We Are Slaves, Deprived Of Every Right, Exposed To Every Insult, Condemned To Certain Death, But We Still Possess One Power, And We Must Defend It With All Our Strength For It Is The Last - The Power To Refuse Our Consent. So We Must Certainly Wash Our Faces Without Soap In Dirty Water And Dry Ourselves On Our Jackets. We Must Polish Our Shoes, Not Because The Regulation States It, But For Dignity And Propriety. We Must Walk Erect, Without Dragging Our Feet, Not In Homage To Prussian Discipline But To Remain Alive, Not To Begin To Die.
