"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.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

~Martin Niemoller, Niemöller was a Lutheran minister and early Nazi supporter who was later imprisoned for opposing Hitler's regime.

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
~George Santayana, writer, and philosopher.
