" In the depths of my heart I felt a great void" (Wiesel 76.)
This shows how Elie is broken down so far that he doesn't even pray any more. He has no more faith or belief. The Germans had not only taken their homes, ripped their family apart, and forced them to live in concentration camps but they also strip them of their religion. A lot of the Jewish keep faith and continue to pray. Thinking things will get better, while others had giving up. Wondering if there was a God, why would he let that happen to them.
"I was silent." (Wiesel 81)
This quote really shows how frightened and scares Elie was at that moment, even if he didn't say it. He becomes worried, knowing that his father probably wouldn't make it past this round. Even though he is silent he really is thinking a million different things. This shows how hopeless Elie had became.

Good analysis but change the colors and maybe pick quotes that you can explain better
good analysis and good length, but maybe get a stronger quote and a better color scheme. Good Job!
