Arbeit Macht Frie

 

If work genuinely sets you free my friend

Then please continue to labour

For as long and hard as you are able

 

Enjoy the fruits of your endeavours certainly

But if it threatens to shackle or condemn you

To an early and anonymous demise

 

Then I would suggest you resign loudly enough

So that future generations might hear

And take heed

 

Some things must never be forgotten

Or for that matter repeated

Except in the sure company of those similarly afflicted
