From The Heart “Not allowed! Your mother! Your wife! Your sister! Do you understand (283)?” Antonina screamed this at the Russian soldiers looting her home during the holocaust. To them the world was coming to an end. Rules no longer mattered. The lives of others were completely unimportant. People only worried for their own lives.
