'I was just doing my job' was what we heard after '45.
'I was just doing my job' was what we heard after '89.
I hear 'I'm just doing my job' today.
How quickly people forget.
How easy people are to corrupt.
How easy people are to incite.
All these are things I see, every day.
All of this hurts that tears shoot into my eyes and run down my cheeks like rivulets.
All of this breaks my heart anew and again and again.
All this makes me tremble with grief.
Michael to Gabriel:
You give him what he wants.
I give him what he needs.

And yet we stand, no matter how icy it gets, and we will help.
And yet we forgive without expecting forgiveness first.
And yet we ease the pain of the burdened.
And yet we still the tears of the frightened.
And yet we spread our arms for those who cut it off first.
We are an example.
