"One needs time to absorb an experience until he understands not only with 
his head, but with his heart," Korczak told an audience in a talk on his 
Palestine trip at the institute of Judaic Sciences in early October.
Those who had attended Korczak's lecture to hear a political analysis of 
what was happening in Palestine must have been disappointed. Only once did 
the famous educator touch on the political situation: "Palestine is like a 
long rope, one end of which is held by the Jews, and the other by the 
Arabs," he said. "They both pull, in the process coming closer and closer. 
But just when they are about to touch, a third party appears and cuts the 
rope. And then the whole thing starts over again."
