C. Chaplin: Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfil that promise. They never will! Let us fight to free the world - to do away with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men’s happiness. Soldiers! in the name of democracy, let us all unite!
Chaplin was on the ****ing button. It's sad to think the World hasn't changed, hasn't learned since then.
The Jesus of Cool was on the button. As I walk through This wicked world Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity. I ask myself Is all hope lost? Is there only pain and hatred, and misery? And each time I feel like this inside, There's one thing I wanna know: What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?
Should have written written by... The sentimenrs of the song are still irrelevant. Sorry, but I dislike that mawkish song intensely.
There is a difference between sentiment and meaningless drivel about imagining no possessions from a bloke who bought an extremely expensive apartment to make sure his wife's fur coats were stored at the right temperature.
Brilliant find Stan. I can't imagine how depressed the writer of that speech would be if he/ she lived today.
