"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's 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.
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.
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little 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."
“很遗憾的是,当统治者非我所愿,也不是我应该干的。我既不想统治任何人,也不想征服任何人。如果可能,我想帮助所有的人,不论是犹太人还是非犹太人,是黑种人还是白种人。
我们都想要守望相助。人类就本来如此。
我们要把生活建筑在别人的幸福上,而不是建筑在别人的痛苦上。我们不要彼此仇恨,互相鄙视。这个世界上有足够的地方让所有的人生活。大地是富饶的,是可以使每一个人都丰衣足食的。
生活的道路可以是自由的,美丽的,只可惜我们至今迷失了方向,走远了。
我们空想得太多了,而太少用真心去感受。我们更需要的不是机器,而是人性。我们更需要的不是聪明乖巧,而是仁慈温情。丢失了这些品质,人生将充斥暴力,所有将走向毁灭。
就在现在,世界上就有千百万人听到我的声音——千百万失望中的男人、女人、小孩——他们都是一个制度下的受害者,这个制度使人们饱受折磨,把无辜者投入监狱。我要向那些听得见我讲话的人说:“不能绝望!”我们现在受到苦难,这只是因为那些害怕人类进步的人在即将消失前发泄他们的怨毒,满足他们的贪婪。这些人的仇恨会消逝的,独裁者会死亡的,他们从人民那里夺去的权力会重新回到人民手中的。只要我们前仆后继,自由是永远不会消失。”
