Description
If you don’t know the beginning, you can’t understand the end
If you don’t know the history, you don’t know the story
If you don’t know the story, you don’t know the struggle
If you don’t know the struggle you don’t know the motives
If you don’t know the motives you don’t know the actions
If you don’t know the actions you don’t know the spirit
If you don’t know the history, you don’t know the story
If you don’t know the story, you don’t know the struggle
If you don’t know the struggle you don’t know the motives
If you don’t know the motives you don’t know the actions
If you don’t know the actions you don’t know the spirit
If you don’t know the spirit, you don’t know the cause
If you don’t know the cause, you know nothing at all.
If you don’t know the cause, you know nothing at all.
