Night question prompt four (DONE!!!!!)

"Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed. Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies I saw turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky.
Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever. Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never."
This quote really struck me, because it kind of sums up how he changes during the book. At the beginning of the book he talks a lot about religion and holidays and studying Torah, but by the end he doesn't even say Kaddish for his father. Because his faith is crushed, he no longer has any reason to believe there is a God. Because if there was one why would he have done something so horrible. His will to live anything he'd ever hoped for or dreamed of doing, all of that was crushed. All because of the horror, the pain, and the suffering he witnessed. To see all the smoke in the sky and know that it's made up of people. People who once had lives, and families, and jobs, and friends, and people who cared about them, all turned to ashes.
