[00:32.78] I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor.
[00:36.64] That's not my business.
[00:38.65] I don't want to rule or conquer anyone.
[00:41.05] I should like to help everyone: Jew, gentile, black man, white.
[00:46.17] We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that.
[00:49.80] We want to live by each other's happiness, not misery.
[00:52.75] We don't want to hate one another.
[01:18.85] In this world, the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
[01:23.90] The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way.
[01:41.90] but we have lost the way.
[02:05.44] Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into bloodshed.
[02:10.86] We have developed speed but have shut ourselves in.
[02:14.13] Machinery has left us in want.
[02:16.81] Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness, hard and unkind.
[02:20.54] We think too much and feel too little.
[02:23.35] More than machinery we need humanity.
[02:26.04] More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness.
[02:29.39] Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost...
[02:33.53] The aeroplane and radio have brought us closer.
[02:35.27] These inventions cry out for the goodness in man, cry out for universal brotherhood, for the unity of us all.
[02:42.70] Even now my voice is reaching millions, millions of despairing men, women and children, victims of a system that makes men torture, and imprison innocent people.
[03:07.86] To those who can hear me I say, do not despair. The misery upon us is but the passing of greed,the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
[03:17.79] The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took will return to the people.
[03:24.46] So long as men die liberty will never perish.
