"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."
Reverend Martin Niemoller
