[ keep playing C#m B A F#m through the whole speech of charlie chaplin ]
“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 . . . . . . don’t give yourselves to these
unnatural men – machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! you are
not machines! you are not cattle! . . you are men! you , the people , have the
power to make this life free and beautiful , to make this life a wonderful
adventure . . . let us use that power – let us all unite . ”
