Below is the transcription of the text in the painting

The promises of paradise are quickly corrupted by the exercise of power, by the weight of things, and freedom becomes the name of despotism. Just look at the examples. We have not taken a step in favor of universal fraternity in the last millennia. The modernity we have achieved is characterized not only by its crudeness through social injustice and violence, but also by its subtle, sweet, insidious aspect that controls human beings through Materialism. Before to want we need to know what we want in order to avoid impossibilities. I believe in freedom even with the risk implicit in it, remembering that humanitarianism and solidarity value man, but they must be born naturally among men and not be imposed by decrees. https://www.biblegateway.com/versions/New-International-Version-NIV-Bible/#booklist
