GREAT SPEECH KINDNESS
by: Anonymous

"In this world there's room for everyone and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone so a way of life can be free and beautiful.......
but we have lost the way, greed has poisoned men's souls, it has barracaded the world with hate.

Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness hard and unkind, we think too much and feel to little. More than machinery we need humanity, more than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness, without these qualities life would be violent and all would be lost.

In the 17th chapter of St Luke it is written -
'THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN MEN' Not one man, not a group of men but in ALL men! In you!
YOU the people have the power to make this life free and beautiful. To make this life a wonderful adventure."

This is part of a speech made by Charlie Chaplin in the film 'THE GREAT DICTATOR' in 1940. Robert's poem brought this beautiful speech to mind.
I wonder if it's only me, but things seem to have worsened even more since then.
