Dr. Edith Eger

to look at everything that happened into an opportunity, for an opportunity.

And that was Auschwitz, the biggest classroom, the most important one I have gone to.

I think we create...

A time when I give you, myself, permission.

That's a very good word.

Give myself permission to let go of the pain and replace it with self-love, which is self-care, which is not narcissistic.

Love yourself is not narcissist.

Permission is a key word.

You know, if I could meet Dr. Mengele now, I really wanted to meet him.

And I found out where he was, but I never really ended up meeting him in person.

He went to South America.

Most of the Nazis went through the Roman Catholics.

somehow helped them to go through, them to go to South America.

I would probably tell him, I have no idea what I would have done if I would have been in your shoes.

You must have felt very powerful sending my mother to the gas chamber.

Because he asked me, is this your sister or is this your mother?

I still want to cry.

And now, that stupidly I said it's my mother, because I could not forgive myself that if I would have said my sister, she wouldn't have gone to the gas chamber.

But then I had to.

I recognized that I did what I could.
