Lipchitz: Do you know that I'm a Jew?
Cleric: If it doesn't bother you, it doesn't bother us.
(Rubin 126)
Lipchitz wanted a special inscription on the Virgin he would design. This inscription is now written on the back of the Virgin:
"Jacob Lipchitz, Jew, faithful to the religion of his ancestors, has made this Virgin to foster understanding between men on earth that the life of the spirit may prevail." (Rubin 126-127)
