Quittons cette Europe qui n’en finit pas de parler de l’homme tout en le massacrant partout où elle le rencontre.

Another quote from the 1960s

When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
