Mary Antin Quote

I want now to be of today. It is painful to be conscious of two worlds. The Wandering Jew in me seeks forgetfulness.


The Promised Land (1912)


I want now to be of today. It is painful to be conscious of two worlds. The Wandering Jew in me seeks forgetfulness.

I want now to be of today. It is painful to be conscious of two worlds. The Wandering Jew in me seeks forgetfulness.

I want now to be of today. It is painful to be conscious of two worlds. The Wandering Jew in me seeks forgetfulness.

I want now to be of today. It is painful to be conscious of two worlds. The Wandering Jew in me seeks forgetfulness.
