“. . . to educate children is not merely to provide for their material, or even their intellectual life, but to assure them of the sympathy of their parents, to inspire them with confidence and the certainty that there is always one place where they can unburden their hearts and forget their pains and sorrows, trivial though these may ofttimes appear to us.”
Alfred Dreyfus, Five Years of My Life, 1894-1899

“I shall struggle against the decline of body and brain and heart so long as a shadow of force is left me, so long as they leave me a spark of life. I must see the end of this dark tragedy.”
Alfred Dreyfus, Five Years of My Life: The Diary of Captain Alfred Dreyfus (Select Bibliographies Reprint)

“How heavy must the responsibility weigh on those others who, in torturing an individual, are also abusing the confidence of an entire nation!”
Alfred Dreyfus, Five Years of My Life: The Diary of Captain Alfred Dreyfus (Select Bibliographies Reprint)
