“Those were the first human words.”

While in the concentration camps, Elie Wiesel and others are treated like animals. They are constantly beaten verbally, emotionally and physically. He says this after the Polish man in charge of them wished them a "Good night". The two simple words are offered as ones of kindness and respect in a place of the opposite.
