"It was the first time I had ever seen him weep. I never imagined that he could. (Wiesel 28)
I believe that this quote shows a lot about Elie's father and what he was going through emotionly. It was obvious that it would have taken some toll on him but up untill this point I never would have guessed how much. He must have ben feeling a great deal of pain from him refuseing to start over wth a new life all the way up untill he had to leave his house with no way of knowing if he would be able to return; It would have had to take a lot in order fora man to break down in tears in front of his family like that.
"Their attitude twards their host's were distant, but polite.(Wiese 19)
This quote made me question if the officers themselves knew what they were doing there in the first place and if they had the same intention to do what they later did. knowing that they hated the Jew and they had every intention to do them harm. This Quote has been very contradictive to me and made me wonder why they would be so polite tif they were just going to be sending them to their deaths.

Tyler, I love how in depth you go into this (: Goood Jooobbbb.
Good job having long in depth analyses. You left off the last quotation marks after both quotes and the period after citation, but it's all minor stuff. Good job.
I think you did a very good job on the analysis and you chose good quotes, it was very in depth!:D
