Żydów gubi brak umiaru we wszystkim i przekonanie, że są narodem
wybranym. Czują się oni upoważnieni do interpretowania wszystkiego,
także doktryny katolickiej. Cokolwiek byśmy zrobili, i tak będzie
poddane ich krytyce - za mało, że źle, że zbyt mało ofiarnie. W moim
najgłębszym przekonaniu szkoda czasu na dialog z Żydami, bo on do
niczego nie prowadzi... Ludzi, którzy uzywają słów 'antysemitą',
'antysemicki', należy traktować jak ludzi niegodnych debaty, którzy
usiłują niszczyć innych, gdy brakuje argumentów merytorycznych. To oni
tworzą mowę nienawiści.
