Quotes:

Mordechai: Don't let them take your God away from you too. Whether he exists or not, don't let them take that away too.

[first lines]::Tour Guide: Unfortunately our admission is not inclusive in your tour price, so sorry you must pay. But, um, the good news it's only 10 zlotas, so not so very bad.

Schmidt: Imagine God is a surgeon, and he has to remove a gangrenous leg or an arm to cure the whole body. It's a violent act. It's painful. But it is also loving. How would it be if we were living through a time like this? Not a punishment, a purification.

Idek: What did the Romans want? That the Jews live like Romans and abandon the Torah.::Schmidt: And where are the Romans now?::Idek: They are dust.::Schmidt: And the Torah?::Idek: Still living, still flowering, still illuminating the world.

[last lines]::Emily: And was their prayer answered?::Jacob: [referring to the Jewish people] They're still here...

Jacques: A thousand million stars in our galaxy alone. If God loves Jews so much, why didn't he fill the universe with Jews instead of stars?
