Elie Wiesel did learn many lessons but the most
predominant lesson he learned was the stong will of humans to survive, no matter what
the circumstances. He witnessed a son attack his own father in the cattle train over a
bit of crust. He himself was reduced to only thoughts of bread and soup; not revenge,
not freedom. Simply bread and soup to keep himself alive. He also witnessed the Rabbi's
son abandon his own father during the forced march through the snow when the son
realized his father was slowing him down. Survival, the will to live of human beings was
by far the strongest lesson Wiesel learned during his eternal "Night" that never
ended.
