First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out —because I was not a communist;

Then 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 out for me.
