A friend brought this to my attention yesterday and i found it very moving..it's still so relevant 70+ years later (and slightly disturbing/amusing seeing hitler as orator  ) aaahhh if only he could have had that attitude
<Ringworm>hehehe, it's all fun and games till someone loses an "I"

Great speech, thanks for sharing!  Its amazing how timeless and still relevant today that this speech is;I dunno if I fully agree with the 'unite in the name of democracy' bit though.Surely mankind should be able to find a higher ideal than democracy to unite upon?:idea: I am paranoid of my brain. It thinks all the time, even when I'm asleep. My thoughts assail me. Murderous lechers they are. Thought is the assassin of thought. Like a man stabbing himself with one hand while the other hand tries to stop the blade. Like an explosion that destroys the detonator. I am paranoid of my brain. It makes me unsettled and ill at ease. Makes me chase my tail, freezes my eyes and shuts me down. Watches me. Eats my head. It destroys me.

Thanks for bringing that FANTASTIC speech to my attention, much love, chris. "Eat your vegetables and do as you're told, or you won't be going to the funfair!"

Final speech of his final film I'm not mistaken. Was he not a silent-movie actor up until this very last act? This may be the first and last time he spoke in a film. Do not listen to anything, "Steely" says. He is a made up character that his owner likes to role play with. His owner is very delusional and everything he says is completely untrue and ridiculous.

Saw this some years ago, amazing that he wrote it himself. Reminded me of another video I saw around that time. http://youtu.be/a15KgyXBX24"If you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much room"
