TO TELL STORIES.

AND THEY WILL DREAM YOU REAL.

ARE THE LANGUAGE OF THE HEART.

ALL STORIES ARE TRUE.

A DREAMER IS ONE WHO CAN ONLY FIND HIS WAY BY MOONLIGHT,
AND HIS PUNISHMENT IS THAT HE SEES THE DAWN
BEFORE THE REST OF THE WORLD.

IS A LIMITLESS CHEST OF TALES.

IS HELD IN STORIES.

I did not speak out.

First they came for the Communists,
but I was not a Communist
so I did not speak out.


Per primi vennero a cercare i comunisti,
ma io non ero comunista
e non mi sono fatto avanti per difenderli.

Then they came for the Socialists
and the Trade Unionists,
but I was neither,
so I did not speak out.

Poi sono venuti per i socialisti
e per i sindacalisti,
ma io non ero niente del genere
e non mi sono fatto avanti per difenderli.



Then they came for the Jews,
but I was not a Jew,
so I did not speak out.

In seguito vennero per gli ebrei,
ma io non ero ebreo,
e non mi sono fatto avanti per difenderli.

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


E quando sono venuti per me,
non era rimasto più nessuno
che potesse farsi avanti per difendermi.


Martin Niemoeller (1892-1984)
(Pastore evangelico deportato a Dachau)
