Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I had to write an essay on Night!. It was pretty easy!.
Some quotes:
-“Where is God!? Where is He!?” someone behind me asked!. !.!.
For more than half an hour [the child in the noose] stayed there, struggling between life and death, dying in slow agony under our eyes!. And we had to look him full in the face!. He was still alive when I passed in front of him!. His tongue was still red, his eyes were not yet glazed!.
Behind me, I heard the same man asking:
“Where is God now!?”
And I heard a voice within me answer him:
“Where is He!? Here He is—He is hanging here on this gallows!. !. !. !.”
-"Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed!. Never shall I forget that smoke!. Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies I saw turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky!.
Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever!.
Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live!. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust!. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself!. Never!."
-"One day I was able to get up, after gathering all my strength!. I wanted to see myself in the mirror hanging on the opposite wall!. I had not seen myself since the ghetto!.
From the depths of the mirror, a corpse gazed back at me!.
The look in his eyes, as they stared into mine, has never left me!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't have any direct quotes in mind from Night, but that was a good book!. My freshman English class did a big explication/report on it!.!.back in the day!. =P Anyway, that was a good book to read and a good book to do a report!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
