GENERAL, YOUR TANK IS A POWERFUL VEHICLE

GENERAL, YOUR TANK IS A POWERFUL VEHICLE
It smashes down forests and crushes a hundred men.
But it has one defect:It needs a driver.
General, your bomber is powerful.
It flies faster than a storm and carries more than an elephant.
But it has one defect:It needs a mechanic.
General, man is very useful.
He can fly and he can kill.
But he has one defect:He can think.

Bertolt Brecht - A communist German Poet and Dramatist.
