Elizabeth Ehrlich

  • “Flawed humans though we are, come Yom Kippur we have a moment to turn God's mirror on ourselves, if there is a God. Or it is a moment to think about something larger than everyday life, to contemplate obligations to other people, to regret our failures, to renounce our shallowness. ... Within all the nattering activity, this day is a silent space.”

Elizabeth Ehrlich, U.S. writer

(1954)

Full name: Elizabeth Ehrlich Potok.
