"I Didn't Forget You"

Simon Wiesenthal is dead at 96. He hunted down Adolf Eichmann and the man who arrested Anne Frank – and so many other Nazis.

"You're a religious man," Wiesenthal told his friend. "You believe in God and life after death. I also believe. When we come to the other world and meet the millions of Jews who died in the camps and they ask us, 'What have you done?' there will be many answers. You will say, 'I became a jeweler.' Another will say, 'I smuggled coffee and American cigarettes.' Another will say, 'I built houses.' But I will say, 'I didn't forget you.'"
