The Warsaw Speech of President Joe Biden
At the Royal Castle in Warsaw, Poland. March 26, 2022 , amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,
The Warsaw Speech of President Joe Biden
“Be not afraid.” These were the first words that the first public address of the first Polish pope after his election in October of 1978, they were the words who would come to define Pope John Paul II. Words that would change the world.
John Paul brought the message here to Warsaw in his first trip back home as pope in June of 1979. It was a message about the power, the power of faith, the power of resilience, the power of the people. In the face of a cruel and brutal system of government, it was a message that helped end the Soviet repression in the central land in Eastern Europe 30 years ago.
It was a message that we’ll overcome the cruelty and brutality of this unjust war. When Pope John Paul brought that message in 1979, the Soviet Union ruled with an iron fist behind an Iron Curtain. Then a year later, the solidarity movement took hold in Poland. While I know he couldn’t be here tonight, we’re all grateful in America and around the world for Lech Walesa. [Applause] It reminds me of that phrase from the philosopher Kierkegaard, “Faith sees best in the dark.” And they were dark moments.
Ten years later, the Soviet Union collapsed and Poland and Central and Eastern Europe would soon be free. Nothing about that battle for freedom was simple or easy. It was a long, painful slog. Fought over not days and months but years and decades. But we emerged anew in the great battle for freedom. A battle between democracy and autocracy. Between liberty and repression. Between a rules-based order and one governed by brute force. In this battle, we need to be clear-eyed. This battle will not be won in days or months either. We need to steel ourselves of a long fight ahead.
Mr. President, Mr. Prime Minister, Mr. Mayor, members of the parliament, distinguished guests, and the people of Poland, and I suspect some people of Ukraine that are here. We are [applause], we are gathered here at the royal castle in this city that holds the sacred place in the history of not only of Europe but human kind’s unending search for freedom.
For generations, Warsaw has stood where liberty has been challenged and liberty has prevailed. In fact, it was here in Warsaw when a young refugee who fled her home country from Czechoslovakia was under Soviet domination, came back to speak and stand in solidarity with dissidence. Her name was Madeleine Korbel Albright. She became one of the most ardent supporters of democracy in the world. She was a friend with whom I served. America’s first woman Secretary of State.
She passed away three days ago. She fought her whole life for central democratic principles. And now in the perennial struggle for democracy and freedom, Ukraine and its people are in the front lines.
Fighting to save their nation and their brave resistance is part of a larger fight for essential democratic principles that unite all free people. The rule of law, fair and free elections, the freedom to speak, to write and to assemble. The freedom to worship as one chooses. The freedom of the press. These principles are essential in a free society. But they have always, they have always been under siege. They have always been embattled. Every generation has had to defeat democracy’s moral foes. That’s the way of the world, for the world is imperfect, as we know. Where the appetites and ambitions of a few forever seek to dominate the lives and liberty of many.
My message to the people of Ukraine is a message I delivered today to Ukraine’s foreign minister and defense minister, who I believe are here tonight. We stand with you. Period!

백지 같은 기도
백지 같은 기도
오, 하나님,
이 아침을
기쁨으로
맞이하도록
저희를
도우소서.
새날은
백지 상태로
저희에게
옵니다.
홍관조 같은
즐거움으로,
참새 같은
용기로,
비둘기 같은
정결함으로
이 백지를
채워 가게
하소서.

Do What is Just and Right
Do What is Just and Right
This is
what the LORD
says:
Do
what is
just and right.
Rescue
from the hand
of his oppressor
the one
who has been
robbed.
Do
no wrong
or violence to
the alien,
the fatherless
or the widow,
and
do not shed
innocent blood
in this
place.
Jeremiah 22: 3
여호와께서
이같이 말씀하시되
너희가
공평과 정의를
행하여
탈취
당한 자를
압박하는 자의
손에서
건지고
이방인과
고아와 과부를
압제하거나
학대하지
말며
이곳에서
무죄한 피를
흘리지
말라

누군가 나에게 물었다
누군가 나에게 물었다
누군가
나에게 물었다.
시가 뭐냐고
나는
시인이
못됨으로
잘 모른다고
대답하였다.
무교동과
종로와 명동과
남산과
서울역 앞을
걸었다.
저물녘
남대문 시장
안에서
빈대떡을
먹을 때 생각나고
있었다.
그런 사람들이
엄청난
고생되어도
순하고
명랑하고
맘 좋고 인정이
있으므로
슬기롭게
사는 사람들이
그런 사람들이
이 세상에서
알파이고
고귀한
인류이고
영원한 광명이고
다름 아닌
시인이라고.
-김종삼 시인-
(1921-1984)

시를 쓰는
마음으로
꽃을 꺾는
마음으로
자는 아이의
고운 숨소리를
듣는 마음으로
죽은 옛 연인을
찾는 마음으로
잃어버린 길을
다시 찾는
마음으로
우리가 찾는
혁명을 마지막까지
이루자
