Thus, I achieved all my objectives. I am not saying that everything is
perfect. I conclude, however, that no one dies of hunger. I do not see children
wandering in the streets. I have a clear conscience. Everything I did,
I did for the sake of the Jews. While where I have erred in my actions, it was
never as a result of ill will. Perhaps I am often bad for individuals, but I must
be for the good of all. I urge those present to help the Warsaw Community to
heal their relations. I have brought all the materials for Chairman Czerniaków,
with whom I am about to have a conference. I hope that it will be no worse
in Warsaw than in Łódź.
