“‘Because my mother
married a communist who wouldn’t kiss the rebbe’s ass. The rebbe,
by the way, was Jacob Levy’s father. So, one man won’t kiss, pretty soon
somebody else won’t, and before you know it you can’t get anyone to pucker up.’”
—Bari Wood, The Tribe. Valancourt Books, 2019 (© 1981); page 183
