“The struggle to survive,” Elie Wiesel wrote in 1966,
will begin here, in this room, where we are sitting. Whether or not the Messiah comes doesn’t matter; we’ll manage without him. It is because it is too late that we are commanded to hope. We shall be honest and humble and strong, and then he will come, he will come every day, thousands of times every day. He will have no face, because he will have a thousand faces. The Messiah isn’t one man … he’s all men (sic). As long as there are men there will be a Messiah. One day you’ll sing, and he will sing in you. (Wiesel, 1966, p. 225)
