Truth Attacked

Famous quotes containing the words truth and/or attacked:

    But I was going to say when Truth broke in
    With all her matter-of-fact about the ice-storm
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    When Hitler attacked the Jews ... I was not a Jew, therefore, I was not concerned. And when Hitler attacked the Catholics, I was not a Catholic, and therefore, I was not concerned. And when Hitler attacked the unions and the industrialists, I was not a member of the unions and I was not concerned. Then, Hitler attacked me and the Protestant church—and there was nobody left to be concerned.
    Martin Niemller (1892–1984)
