I know about the bad, but I look for good things
Alice Herz Sommer, the world's oldest survival of the Nazi Holocaust and author of the book "A Garden of Eden in Hell" says " I know about the bad, but I look for good things."
She wrote "A garden of Eden in Hell" when she was 104 years old. Through the horrors she has witnessed and the mental and emotional anguish that she has experienced during her internment in a Nazi concentration camp she attributes her love for music that saves her life.
“When you are optimistic, when you are not complaining, when you look at the good side of your life, everybody loves you.”
Today at age 110 Alice lives quietly in England. An accomplished musician she continues to play on her piano three hours a day.
