The Greatest Speech (feat. The Great Dictator)

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

Greed has poisoned men's souls

Has barricaded the world with hate

Has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed

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

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 children

Victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison 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, perish, perish

We all want to help one another

We don't want to hate and despise one another

Human beings are like that

Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost
