Anne Frank Quotes

Anne Frank died, but she has left a very inspirational legacy behind. During her life, Anne was a very optimistic person. She loved to think of the best things in life. She was very caring too, comforting people when they were down. Her feelings about some people and some situations changed at times, but she has always felt the same about one thing. Anne believed that people are really good at heart because she is a kind and caring individual. Why would she think this way in that situation? What does this say about her as a person?

Even though Anne lived in confinement and in such circumstances she didn’t give up on herself and was still optimistic. This shows that Anne Frank is a strong person, at an early age she was able to not lose hope and still believed that people are really good at heart. She continued to grow as a person and still had positivity in

A major influence on Anne’s positivity was her father. Anne viewed her relationship with Otto Frank to be the closest in her life. In her diary she even said, “I love you father. I don't love anyone but you.” Throughout their forced captivity, Anne witnessed the compassion her father showed to others. Otto demonstrated kindness by inviting the Van Daans and Mr Dussel to live in the annex with them. Her father knew the risks of inviting more people to hide with them but he set aside the concerns about having enough food, or enough space, or even the threat of being betrayed because it

“It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.” (Anne Frank) Anne Frank was one of the many children who fell victim to the Holocaust during the World War II. Anne’s story is nothing short of a tragedy; she died at the early age of fifteen from Typhus while being held by the Nazi Regime, in the concentration camp Bergen-Belsen. Before dying, Anne and her family went into hiding and lived secretly in her father's office building in the Netherlands. While living in the “Annex,” a secret hiding place, she developed many interests such as reading and writing. Anne is famous because she is one of the best-known victims of the Holocaust, her story has been shared with millions in a publication of her diary, and through her writing’s she introduces many people to the massacre and its horror.

Throughout the entire book Anne remains hopeful that her life will get better. Ever through starvation, boredom, and fear, Anne is still hopeful at heart. When the family arrives at the annex and tries to make the best of the situation by saying, “I don't think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains” (171). Earlier on in the novel Anne had chosen to focus on the beauty beneath the fog of war and death. She keeps telling herself that There is still beauty in the world. Later in the story Anne makes a mature comment, she said, “It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals,

The quote that I picked was found on lesson one on Edgenuity in the reading called "Anne Frank's The Diary of (A) Young Girl, the quote is "It seems like years since Sunday morning. So much has happened its as if the whole world had suddenly turned upside down. But, as you can see Kitty, I'm still alive, and that's the main thing, Father says. I'm alive all right, but don't ask where or how. You probably don't understand a word I'm saying today." This quote means that she does show a sense of courage in a time where you never really seen any of that. When she was writing there were examples of pettiness in which she shared personal items with everyone. One example is when Mrs. Van Daan does not want her sheets to be used, but yet she expects to use all the Franks' sheets, Anne's mother Mrs. Frank does not want to use her dinnerware, but yet expects the Van Daan family to use their dinnerware. Also although the protectors should be commended for their bravery and selflessness, it is also true that they had less at stake than the members of the Secret Annex. I feel like as if I was Anne Frank I wouldn't be able to write in a diary because I would be scared of it being found. I make a connection with her by being able to be open with people, that is a sense of courage. Anne didn't let anyone stop her from

Many, many people suffered during the Holocaust war. The Jews in particular were in grave danger. The drama ‘Anne Frank’ outlines so many ways that this historical event caused a shift in the mood of the characters and their relationships. Before the Holocaust, Anne Frank was just an ordinary Jewish girl living in Germany. A German leader named Adolf Hitler developed a plan to destroy the Jews and to rule over the specific places where they lived. What Hitler did to these poor Jews, and the sheer terror they endured at the hands of this Nazi leader is purely unfathomable.

What defines a human? Is it the compassion for others? Is it the feeling of having a conscience? It is this and many more. Anne Frank once said, "In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart." Anne Frank was a young Jewish girl who lived during the Holocaust. An event called the Holocaust was a time period during World War II in Europe where Jewish people were persecuted and we're treated like lesser people. Despite these harsh conditions, Anne Frank still remained positive. A question that might arise from this is, why did Anne write this, how did she feel during this ordeal, what does the quote reveal about her character and what does the quote reveal about her views on life?

In her diary, Anne Frank famously wrote, “In spite of everything, I still believe people are good at heart.” She was inspired to say this by the people who helped her, her positivity that showed, and everyone in the secret annex. Anne Frank and all of the other Jews were forced to go to concentration camps of go into hiding due to Hitler who was anti semitic. While in the annex, she kept a diary and after she was killed in the concentration camps, later on, this diary was published. After that, a play was made from her diary that was called The Diary of Anne Frank. Consequently, people were exposed to the heartbreaking story of Anne Frank, her family, and her friends. The play really showed the emotions of the characters and

Throughout her time in the “Secret Annexe,” (what she called their hiding space) Anne grew from a hot-headed child into a smart young woman. In the beginning of the book, only 2 months after going into hiding, she writes that feels grateful that her and her family have been spared the fate of some of her friends, however this also makes her feel guilty, because she can’t save those who didn’t get the chance to go into hiding. In her diary, on November 19, 1942, she wrote,“We’re so fortunate here, away from the turmoil. We wouldn’t have to give a moment’s thought to all this suffering if it weren’t for the fact that we’re so worried about those we hold dear, whom we can no longer help. I feel wicked sleeping in a warm bed, while somewhere out there my dearest friends are dropping from exhaustion or being knocked to the ground.” (paragraph 5 pg 55)

Anne Frank was a young girl who lived during the holocaust who lived during Hitler’s reign in Amsterdam. Only one problem: She was Jewish. In July of 1942, Margot Frank was called to report to a concentration camp. The Franks were forced into hiding in an annex behind Mr. Frank’s business. The Franks, along with the Van Pels and Mr. Pfeffer, hid in the annex for about two years. During her time in hiding, Anne confided in a diary. In her diary, she wrote “Despite everything, I believe people are really good at heart.” I agree with Anne. In my opinion, everyone is good at heart; they just show it in different ways. People do what they think is right. Even though there is evil in the world, I believe that deep down, everyone is good at heart.

In the annex, Anne had many types of relationships with very few people. At first she didn’t like Peter Van Daan, because he was so shy and pessimistic. But as time wore on, she got closer and closer to Peter, and had a very broad love. Alas, this love did not last. Anne became annoyed with Peter, because he was so lost in her beauty and intelligence that he wouldn’t listen to her or give her any space. Her father, Pim or Otto, would always smother her with “understanding” but he never really knew how she felt. He would sympathetically explain to her that,”It’ll pass,” and that,”It’s just a phase.” Anne, however, wouldn’t have it. She wanted to be her own person, leave her own mark on the world. “I want to go on living, even after I die.”-Anne Frank confided in her diary. Edith, Anne’s mother, tried to get close to Anne and be what a mother is supposed to be, a supporter, and friend; a shoulder to cry on and a person who sees the best in you even at your worst. But Anne didn’t want to let her in, because when she did her mother judged her and put her down; made her feel like there was something erroneous about herself. Most people in my grade are in some kind of relationship.

When Anne went into hiding she took her diary with her and in it she recorded her story. One line in her diary that stood out was the quote, “Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.” On this issue I agree with Anne. That despite whatever evils a person may have committed, they are good at heart.

“We’ve all done things we are ashamed of...Stop it now! Let's all be happy.” Pg. 506. This quote shows that they are trying to be positive. They are trying to be positive and look on the bright side of things.This shows the people are truly good at heart because they are trying to get each other to be positive and try to be optimistic. Mr Frank: “It seems strange to say this, as if anyone could be happy in a concentration camp. But Anne was happy in the camp in Holland where they first took us. After two years of being locked up . . . she could be out . . . in the fresh air she loved.” pg. 77. Anne was seeing the good in the really bad situation that she was in at the time.
