"In Hebrew, the word mashber [crisis in English] refers [also] to the place where the woman sits to give birth, the place where new life is born, and that in my opinion is what is happening to us - mashber, rather than shever [rupture]. There will be a birth here of a new identity..."
Yohanan Ben-Yaakov
