Elie Wiesel Quote
On why he waited ten years to write about the Holocaust on his first book:
I didn't want to use the wrong words. I was afraid that words might betray it. I waited. I'm still not sure that it was the wrong move, or the right move, that is, whether to choose language or silence.
The Paris Review, The Art of Fiction No. 79, Issue 91, Spring 1984
