A four-kind son-of-a-bitch, but the greatest Jew since Jesus Christ.

—Robbins, Colonel

In fact, I'm not really a Jew.Just Jew-ish. Not the whole hog you know.

—Miller,JonathanWolfe

And all must love the human form, In heathen,Turk or Jew; Where mercy, Love and Pity dwell There God is dwelling too.

—Blake,William

   Part of knowing who we are is knowing we are not someone else. And Jew is only the name we give to that stranger, the agony we cannot feel, the death we look at like a cold abstraction. Each man has his Jew; it is the other.

—Miller, Arthur

I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city.

—Bible (NewTestament)

Of historyand its consequences it may be said: 'Those who can, gloat; those who can't, brood.' Englishmen are born gloaters; Irishmen born brooders. There are, it is true, brooders who take to gloating, and they did much to build the Empire.Yet the brooder-gloater, such as the Irishman turned Englishman, is not, as a human type, altogether a success. He is a little too much on his guard, like an excessivelyassimilated Jew, or a son of Harlem who has decided to'pass'. The past of the Irishman, the Jew, the Negro, is, psychologically, too explosive to be buried.

—Cruise

What makes you a normal Jew, Nathan, is how you are riveted by Jewish abnormality.

Lienot oneto another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

—Bible (NewTestament)

There isneither Jew nor Greek, there isneither bond nor free, there isneither malenor female: for yeareall onein Christ Jesus. 122

—Bible (NewTestament)

Americaörather, the United Statesöseems to me to be the Jewamong the nations. It is resourceful, adaptable, maligned, envied, feared, imposed upon. It is warm- hearted, overfriendly; quick-witted, lavish, colorful; given to extravagant speech and gestures; its people are travellers and wanderers by nature, moving, shifting, restless; swarming in Fords, in ocean liners; craving entertainment; volatile.

—Ferber, Edna
