Lev Leviev Quotes on Culture

3 quotes

  1. We're ashamed of what we are. That's why we feel that we have to get rid of the values of our glorious history and run to learn from other, new nations. Don't I look to you like a man of the world? Don't I speak to the leading businessmen in the world? And it's no problem that I'm a Jew, and a proud Jew who wears a skullcap everywhere. That's my symbol and my identity.

  2. I come to eat with very important people in the world, and I say 'only kosher', and always with a skullcap. I don't recall that my business ever suffered from that.

  3. The moment you ask a child in Israel what Yom Kippur means to him, and he answers the Yom Kippur War, or a fun day on a bicycle - then I don't know if that is Zionism or whatever you call it, but it has certainly become bankrupt
