Communist stuck in Marseilles with other refugees fleeing the Nazis.
“What can I expect here? You know the fairy tale about the man who died, don’t you? He was waiting in Eternity to find out what the Lord had decided to do with him. He waited and waited, for one year, ten years, a hundred years. He begged and pleaded for a decision. Finally he couldn’t bear the waiting any longer. Then they said to him: ‘What do you think you’re waiting for? You’ve been in Hell for a long time already.”
When you're young and healthy you can recover quickly from a defeat. But betrayal is different — it paralyzes you.
