Quotes by Corrie Ten Boom

Corrie ten Boom worked in her family's watch shop in Haarlem and helped hide Jewish refugees in a false wall of their house during the German occupation. The family was betrayed in 1944; she survived Ravensbrück, and her father and sister did not. Afterwards she travelled the world for three decades speaking about forgiveness, including of her captors. The Hiding Place tells the story. Her lines on worry and forgiveness carry unusual weight for having been tested.
