´´...parents, home, country. ´´
1:44:06
A lot has been made up to me...
1:44:09
...from where l lost out.
1:44:12
l have a second cousin here.
1:44:15
He says "´Anything you haven´t had,
you´ve got now."´
1:44:17
Which is so true.
1:44:19
And I´m very gratefuI
and very proud of the whoIe famiIy.
1:44:27
The younger you were, the more
unforgiving you are of your parents.
1:44:31
You may say they were so brave
and saved you...
1:44:33
...but they really abandoned you.
1:44:37
We were four friends, very close friends.
1:44:39
We all agreed:
1:44:41
"´If it ever happens again...
1:44:43
"´...we wiII not send away our chiIdren.
We wiII stay...
1:44:46
"´...and die together."´
1:44:48
That´s what we said.
1:44:52
Later on, as we grew oIder, we said...
1:44:54
...we mitigated it, we said:
1:44:56
"´If it ever happens, we promise to take
each other´s chiIdren in.
1:45:00
"´We wiII not send them to strangers."´
1:45:06
l certainly do my share of remembering...
1:45:09
...but remembering also has to have...
1:45:11
...a present and future perspective.
1:45:14
You can´t just stop at remembering.
1:45:21
l don´t think l ever made
a conscious decision to devote myself...
1:45:25
...to human rights and social justice issues.
1:45:29
Someone helped me.
1:45:31
l can´t pay back...
1:45:33
...or thank some of the people
who helped me...
1:45:36
...but l can do something for other people.
