Question

"I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing.

My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments." - Anne Frank, The The Diary of a Young Girl, 1952 What makes this quote valuable to a student who is researching World War II or the Holocaust?
