Otac mi se zva Geza, doša je u Split iz Daruvara, tamo su moji preci imali velika imanja. Mater Zorka rođena Rakelić bila je Splićanka. Dogovorili su se: ako dite bude muško biće Židov, ako bude žensko biće katolkinja!" ("My father's name was Geza, he arrived in Split from Daruvar, where my ancestors had large estates. My mother Zorka was born Rakelić in Split. They agreed: if the child is a boy he would be a Jew, if the child is a female she would be a Catholic!")
