Quotes by Otto Rosenberg (?)

“In a situation like that, you lose all sense of compassion. Your only instinct is to kick, beat and steal in pursuit of some advantages that might help you survive. If, whenever it was all over, you recall looking at those people, recall scrutinising their faces like I did, you would see that they were hardly people anymore; they were more like dumb beasts.”
― Otto Rosenberg, A Gypsy In Auschwitz: How I Survived the Horrors of the ‘Forgotten Holocaust’
