"Juré nunca guardar silencio cuando y donde los seres humanos sufran sufrimiento y humillación. Siempre debemos tomar partido. La neutralidad ayuda al opresor, nunca a la víctima. El silencio alienta al torturador, nunca al torturado."
— Elie Wiesel
Simplified Meaning:
When people are treated badly or made to suffer, it is important to speak up and choose a side. Staying quiet or not choosing a side helps those who are causing the harm, not the ones who are suffering.
