{{quote|Dr. Janusz Korczak’s children’s home is empty now. A few days ago we all stood at the window and watched the Germans surround the houses. Rows of children, holding each other by their little hands, began to walk out of the doorway. There were tiny tots of two or three years among them, while the oldest ones were perhaps thirteen. Each child carried the little bundle in his hand. | Mary Berg| ''The Diary'' <ref name="Berg">Mary Berg, ''The Diary of Mary Berg: Growing Up in the Warsaw Ghetto'', Oxford: Oneworld Publications, 1996, pages 169-170.</ref> }}
