"J'ai juré de ne jamais me taire chaque fois et partout où des êtres humains endurent la souffrance et l'humiliation. Nous devons toujours prendre parti. La neutralité aide l'oppresseur, jamais la victime. Le silence encourage le bourreau, jamais le tourmen"

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.
