This is the quote I have in my collection:
"In Germany they first came for the communists and I didn't speak up
because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't
speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the Trade Unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't  Trade Unionist. Then they came
for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me - and by that time no one was left to speak up."
