Martin Niemöller, Edmund Burke

"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."

- Martin Niemöller

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
- Edmund Burke

  2. Very true, brother, but better said and leave no doubt about the issue. I'm of course referring to the insane Quran burner clowns... Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
