"First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me."

Leonard Read And The Ideal Of Freedom
Submitted by Robert Fredericks on Sun, 2010-07-11 02:00
"In the April 1975 issue of Reason magazine Tibor Machan interviewed the Foundation for Economic Education’s president, Leonard E. Read. At the time, Read was in his late 70s but his answers seem as sharp as any of his writings."
