Linha 73:
::- ''The Jews could be put down very plausibly as the most unpleasant race ever heard of. As commonly encountered they lack any of the qualities that mark the civilized man: courage, dignity, incorruptibility, ease, confidence. They have vanity without pride, voluptuousness without taste, and learning without wisdom. Their fortitude, such as it is, is wasted upon puerile objects, and their charity is mainly a form of display''.

* "Eu sou um dos poucos gentis que já encararam o [[Talmude]]. Bem, eu suponho que você espere eu acrescentar o quão profunda e nobre é a obra, o quanto é digna e merecedora de estudo árduo pelos gentis. Infelizmente, o que eu tenho a reportar destoa dessa expectativa. A mim pareceu, salvo alguns pontos brilhantes, indistinguível de lixo".
::- ''I am one of the few Goyim who have ever actually tackled the Talmud. I suppose you now expect me to add that it is a profound and noble work, worthy of hard study by all other Goyim. Unhappily, my report must differ from this expectation. It seems to me, save for a few bright spots, to be quite indistinguishable from rubbish''.
