[00:00.001]I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be an emperor. That’s not my business.
[00:05.200]I don’t want to rule or conquer anyone.
[00:07.300]I should like to help everyone - if possible - Jew, Gentile, black man, white.
[00:12.100]We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that.
[00:16.050]We want to live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery.
[00:19.100]We don’t want to hate and despise one another.
[00:21.400]In this world there is room for everyone.
[00:23.500]And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
[00:26.400]The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way.
[00:31.500]Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate,
[00:36.500]has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.
[00:39.330]We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in.
[00:42.120]Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want.
[00:45.100]Our knowledge has made us cynical.
[00:47.200]Our cleverness, hard and unkind.
[00:49.300]We think too much and feel too little.
[00:52.200]More than machinery we need humanity.
[00:54.200]More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness.
[00:57.800]Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost....
[01:02.600]The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together.
[01:04.600]The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men
[01:08.100]cries out for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all.
[01:11.200]Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
[01:14.200]millions of despairing men, women, and little children
[01:17.400]victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
[01:22.300]To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair.
[01:25.800]The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed
[01:29.000]the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
[01:32.300]The hate of men will pass, and dictators die,
[01:35.880]and the power they took from the people will return to the people.
[01:39.000]And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
[01:44.000]Soldiers!
[01:45.100]Don’t give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you
[01:48.500]who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel!
[01:52.600]Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
[01:56.500]Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men
[01:59.600]machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
[02:02.100]You are not machines!
[02:04.200]You are not cattle!
[02:05.000]You are men!
[02:06.200]You have the love of humanity in your hearts!
[02:08.500]You don’t hate!
[02:09.700]Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!
[02:12.580]Soldiers! Don’t fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!
[02:16.500]In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written:《
[02:18.100]“the Kingdom of God is within man” - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! “
[02:23.600]You, the people have the power - the power to create machines. The power to create happiness!
[02:28.100]You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
[02:34.100]Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite!
