Fima did not let up:
"Do you remember that famous line of poetry of Amir Gilboa?
'Suddenly a man gets up in the morning, he realizes to be a people and sets off'?
That's the absurdity of which I'm talking about.
First, Professor, the truth, hand on heart, is: did you ever get up in the morning and suddenly realize that you are a people?
At most, in the afternoon.
Who's going to be able to get up in the morning and realize to be a people?
And what's more get in the way.
Perhaps Geula Cohen, who is rising in the morning and you feel like shit? ".
