MARK TWAIN ABOUT THE JEWISH PEOPLE, published in the year 1899:
★ "If the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one percent of the human race. It suggests a nebulous dim puff of star dust lost in the blaze of the Milky Way. Properly the Jew ought hardly to be heard of, but he is heard of, has always been heard of. He is as prominent on the planet as any other people, and his commercial importance is extravagantly out of proportion to the smallness of his bulk. His contributions to the world’s list of great names in literature, science, art, music, finance, medicine, and abstruse learning are also away out of proportion to the weakness of his numbers. He has made a marvelous fight in the world, in all the ages; and has done it with his hands tied behind him. He could be vain of himself, and be excused for it.
The Egyptian, the Babylonian, and the Persian rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded to dream-stuff and passed away; the Greek and the Roman followed, and made a vast noise, and they are gone; other peoples have sprung up and held their torch high for a time, but it burned out, and they sit in twilight now, or have vanished. The Jew saw them all, beat them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities of age, no weakening of his parts, no slowing of his energies, no dulling of his alert and aggressive mind. ALL THINGS ARE MORTAL BUT THE JEW; ALL OTHER FORCES PASS, BUT HE REMAINS. What is the secret of his immortality?” - Mark Twain
★ (This article was written in 1899 when anti-Semitism was widespread in the United States. Large companies did not hire Jews, Universities either didn't admit Jews or limited their numbers with strict quotas. "Respectable" people like Ford and Edison expressed their anti-Jewish feelings openly. Mark Twain had an answer for them:

are truly remarkable. The sciences, the arts, everything Twain mentioned the Jews have had quite an impact on, even discounting their small numbers.
The US is most fortunate to have so many citizens of Jewish ethnicity.
Bravo, Mr. Twain.
OK, they have little effect in the NBA as players but I'll overlook that. 
I'm as W(?)ASP as they come, 99.9% Northwestern European with .1% unaccounted for( according to 23 and Me) but I applaud what these exceptionally talented people have accomplished.
Oh yeah, the question mark at the end of the W in WASP. Any Anglo Saxon Protestant is white. I've always felt the W unnecessary. Unless they're orange, anyway.
