To the Israelis, Europe became the essayist Mario Andrea Rigoni’s “old lady, who after she had allowed herself all sorts of liberties…and a great number of horrors, would like, once she has reached the age of society, fatigue, and weakness, to see the world adapt itself to her needs for moderation, equity, and peace.”
对以色列人来说，欧洲成了散文家马里奥·安德烈·瑞贡尼(Mario Andrea Rigoni)笔下的“在经历过对自己进行种种放任行为…以及从事过许多糟糕的事情之后，一旦到达社交，疲累以及虚弱的年龄，就想看到世界变成适应她对节制、公正和和平的需求的老太太。”
