Dear Diary,
I am going to write about a quote that Anne Frank's father, Otto said to her during there time of the Annex
. During the time of hiding, Otto Frank
said to Anne "Always remember this Anne, there are no walls, no bolts, no locks that anyone can put on your mind." When Otto Frank had told her that, he was trying to give Anne a sense of comfort towards her. He was trying to say that if they did end up getting caught in hiding and end up going to a Concentration Camp, no one could ever control her mind or control what she was thinking. The Nazis could do anything to dehumanize a Jewish person but they can never control a person's mind or tell them what to think. The Germans could have made a Jew feel like an outcast or a person that is worth nothing or touchier them, make them perform back breaking labor, kill and starve them but they can never take a person's thoughts away. No one can ever make another person think that they are nothing because no one can control another person's mind. No one can stop you from thinking what you want to think no matter what anyone says or does to you. I agree with this quote because no can control your mind unless you let them.
