I'm sorry I don’t want to be an Emperor, that is not my business; I don’t want to rule or conquer anyone, I should like to help everyone if possible Jew, gentile, black man, white, we all want to help one another, human beings are like that.
We want to live by each other happiness, not by each other misery, We don’t want to hate and despise one another, In this world there's room for everyone, and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone, the way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way, greed has poisoned men souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goosed up us into misery and blood shed.
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in,
Machinery that gives abundance have left us in want,
Our knowledge had made us cynical, our cleverness hard and unkind,
We think too much and feel too little,
More than machinery we need humanity,
More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness,
Without these qualities life will be violent and all will be lost.
The airplane and the radio had brought us closer together, the very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood, for the unity of us all.
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing men women and little children, Victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
To those who can hear me I say, do not despair, the misery that is now upon us, is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress, the hate of men who will pass and dictators die and the power they took from the people will return to the people , and so long as men die, liberty will never parish.
Soldiers don’t give yourself to bruits, men who despise you and slave you, who regiment your lives, tell you what to do what to think and what to feel, who drill you, tight you, treat you like cattle, use you as canon fighter, don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts, you are not machines, you are not cattle, you are men, you have the love of humanity in your hearts, you don’t hate, only the unloved hate, the unloved and the unnatural.
Soldiers don’t fight for slavery, fight for liberty In the 17th chapter of …..written, the kingdom of God is within e, not one man nor a group of men, but in all men, in you, you the people have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness, you the people have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure, then in the name of democracy, let us choose our power, let us all unit, let us fight for a new world, a decent world, that will give man a chance to work, that will give you the future and all ages security.
By the promise of these things, bruits has raisin to power, but they lie, they do not fulfill their promise, they never will, dictators free themselves, but they enslave the people, now let us fight to fulfill the promise, let us fight to free the world, to do away with national barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance, let us fight for a world of reason, a world were science and progress will lead to all men's happiness, Soldiers in the name of democracy, let us all unit.
These are not my words and not my speech, though I wish they were, (I will change some words a little here and there) but keep it's amazing core and solid message as is, it's an inspiring speech that I have been listening to over and over again all morning, which I think is taken from a movie or something. I decided to share it in written so one can sense the power in each word, to remind us during this time of need of the things that matter in this world that we are living in for a while now, and to be able to evaluate and realize what is need to be changed within ourselves.
