First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

Haha self-owned
they have something like that in Dutch too.
Good message.
Nice one Exo.
Nice, perfect timing to. I'm going to use the first part of this for my powerpoint presentation in regards to global issues in my global history course. ^_^
hmmm heard this a while back. very good.
That was in my history text book last year. I found it to be sad... :(
LOL we just covered this poem in class
dammit exy i was going to post it :p
also poet was a peace activist, german clergyman, and a author. he spent 8 years in concentration camps for organizing clergy to resist Nazism
what have you guys done in 2008 to speak out so far?
As I said I'm making this PowerPoint for my history course to present to the class also as you seen before I'm promoting Z-Day(Zeitgeist Day). It's crucial that all of us do something in the very near future else our freedom will be torn from us.Originally Posted by Exclamatio
I've started small. As one person we can make a difference, but not a world-wide one, and not right away. I've been slowly helping anyone i can, converting humanity to be good and spreading any knowledge of the truth and good to everyone i know. I've spread zeitgeist, i've spread the use of logic and reason. I'm trying to build humanity to be better one by one.
i spoke out for the mentally handicapped at a new years/chriustmas party on the 11th
I remember a quote Exy told me once which I will probably always remember, goes something like this:
One man can't change the world. You can only change your own world, and by doing so, change the worlds of those around you.
Love that quote to.
I spoke for the jews when they came to get them...
aye thats awesome man, thanks for the link the big zday promo btw ill be doing something with that over here too
little steps make the big steps mate, we are all ripples in the pond of life
awesome, how did that go?
and that makes you how old? :P
I don't speak out and I don't try to change the world.
Every action we make changes the world somehow so I just live life doing what I can for myself and others.
Nice one.
I also spoke for the communists when they came to ge them.
Banded together with a cohort of people who took the same course at uni and complained to the head of our year about how poorly the damn thing was taught, planned and all the rest. It won't help me in any way (still failed the exam today) but it's more likely to improve the situation for the people taking the course next year. [Rant]T'was shite. Meandering witterings from someone using someone elses notes they'd copied an hour before the lecture (might as well've been tbh). When the lecturer sees how badly everyone on her course did she better feel an earth shattering realisation at what a sub-par job she did. Complaining to her seemed to do fuck all. How can you write an exam paper that only covers less than half the subject matter?[/Rant]
This sounds familiar. Where did you steal it from?
Meh, I'm apparently(sp?) too honest, but its just that I don't give a shit who you are, if your wrong in my perspective to someone near me, I'll fucking react.
Meh besides that, do whatever pleases you.
Edit: Meh, its a lie.
I only care 'bout meself.
I don't care if your a 3 by 3 guy who thinks he is cool 'cause he beats up kids, just don't try me. (Meant as a example).
I'm a selfish motherfucker.
Ye olde provebs, seems like just yesturday we were learning about world war 2 in history,
the sad thing is most people dont really learn at all
sure they remember dates and events but they dont learn a thing
straight from my mind spikey, that's an original ^_^This sounds familiar. Where did you steal it from?
I heard that quote in Boston Legal. Good quote.
I stopped drinking Coca-Cola
