Eddie Jaku, a 98-year-old Holocaust survivor, sharing his advice for a good life.
"You must not hate. You say, "I don't like this person", but you don't hate. Hate is a disease. It destroys first your enemy, but you also. It destroys you. Hate.
They ask me, "What is my secret?" My secret is a good wife, and friendship. Friendship you cannot buy. When I was eight years old, my father said to me, "Eddie, there is more pleasure in giving than taking." I thought he's coo-coo. No. Now that I have children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, what you give, you get back. You give nothing, you get nothing back. See, this is important. I want to teach you all the people who are young. If you don't learn from us, there will not be a future."
