I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's 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's happiness - not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world, there is 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. Sorry, I don't want to be king. I'm not interested in that kind of thing. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. If possible, I want to help everyone - Jews, non-Jews, blacks, whites... We have a desire to help each other, it is human nature. We want to see the happiness of others, not the pain of others. We don't want to hate each other, hate each other. The world has enough room for us, and the fertile land can nourish everyone. Life could have been free and beautiful, but we lost our way.
Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has 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… greed erodes The souls of mankind have been destroyed, and hatred has been used to build barriers of hatred all over the world, driving us step by step into suffering and massacres. We're growing fast, but we're cocooning ourselves. Machines have given us material abundance, but they have also made us insatiable. Our knowledge makes us cynical, our cleverness makes us ruthless. We think too much and feel too little. We need humanity more than machines. We need kindness and gentleness more than ingenuity. Without these qualities, life would be violent and everything would be lost.
The aeroplane and the radio have 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. Airplanes and radios bring us closer to each other. The essence of these inventions is a call to the conscience of mankind, a call to the comradeship of all mankind, a call to the unity of all of us. Right now, my voice is reaching millions of people - millions of desperate men, women, children, victims of a system that twists people into A ruthless machine that tortures and imprisons 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 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 perish... I say to those who hear my voice: don't despair. The suffering we are going through is only a shadow of greed - the malice of those who fear human progress. Human hatred will eventually dissipate, dictators will eventually die, and the power they took from the people will eventually return to the people. As long as mortals are mortal, liberty will never perish.
Soldiers! don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. 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! Soldiers! Don't entrust yourselves to savage beasts - those who despise you, enslave you, treat your life like a piece of shit, manipulate your actions, manipulate your thoughts, manipulate your feelings! They use you, squeeze you, drive you like a horse, send you to be cannon fodder. Don't entrust yourself to these unnatural perverts - cold machines with minds and hearts! You are not machines! You are not bulls and horses! You are human! Human love shines in your hearts! You will not hate! Only those who haven't been loved can incite hatred - the unloved, and the maddened perverts! Warriors! Do not fight for slavery! Fight for freedom!
In the 17th Chapter of St Luke, it is written: “the Kingdom of God is within man” - 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. Luke 17 reads: The kingdom of God is in man In the heart - not one person, not a small group of people, but in the hearts of all people! in your heart! You, the people, have power, power to create machines, power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful journey.
Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security . By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfill that promise. They never will! Then, in the name of democracy, let us use this power! Let us unite. Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that gives people job opportunities, young people a future, and old people with support. In the past, savage beasts have seized power under the banner of these promises. But they are full of lies! They won't deliver on those promises, they never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people! Now let us fight to fulfil that 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 where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness. Soldiers! in the name of democracy, let us all unite! Now, let's fight to truly deliver on that promise! Let's fight to liberate the world! Let us break down the barriers of national borders, eradicate greed, eradicate hatred, and eradicate narrow-mindedness. Let us fight for a rational world, a world where science and progress can bring happiness to all mankind. Warriors! In the name of democracy, let us unite!
