Stand Up For Your Beliefs

When the Nazis came for the communists, I remained silent;
... I was not a communist.
Then they locked up the social democrats, I remained silent;
... I was not a social democrat.
Then they came for the trade unionists, I did not protest;
... I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, I did not speak out; I was not a Jew.

When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out for me.

… Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)
