May this one be peaceful; RIP Elie Wiesel
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

"To forget a Holocaust is to kill twice."

Farewell, Mr. Wiesel.  The best legacy I can think of would be that the world "never forgets..."

Incidentally, I can claim two degrees of separation from Mr. Wiesel.  The lady-friend I spoke of elsewhere on this forum met and worked with the Nobel-laureate when she translated an essay of his for the "Parade" magazine/newspaper supplement back in 1992.
