❝ It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals,
they seem so absurd and impractical.
Yet I cling to them because I still believe,
in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.
 
❝ I need to have something besides a husband and children 
to devote myself to!
I don't want to have lived in vain like most people.
I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people,
even those I've never met.

from The Diary of a Young Girl

❝ How wonderful it is that no one has to wait,
but can start right now to gradually change the world!
How wonderful it is that everyone, great and small,
can immediately help bring about justice by giving 
of themselves!
You can always — always — give something,
even if it's a simple act of kindness! 

from Tales from the Secret Annex

- Annelies Marie Frank -

June 12, 1929 - February 1945
