I got curious about the line and looked it up.

It sounds like a "sample" (maybe from that actual Twilight Zone episode) at the beginning of Anthrax's "Intro to Reality" which is the sixth track on their "Persistence of Time" album:

\We did as we were told.\
\We just heard you offer the apology for all the monsters of our times.\ \
\Is that correct?\ (Muwahahahahahaha)

(the rest of the track is instrumental)

Then the line is referenced again in "Belly of the Beast" which is the next track on that album:

You walk this earth without a heart
You tear the innocent's souls apart
You shovel your conscience into the grave
You walk this earth without a heart
Your uniform couldn't be take off
A tattoo burned into your flesh
Your mind, your voice
These are your instruments of death
How could you dare to be so bold
>>You only did as you were told<<
Marionettes dancing in time
>>To the apologetic lines<<
>>For all the monsters of our time<<

Who is evil, who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast
One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
Million, never never again
Madness, never never again
Martyrs, dead that can't die
Monsters
Insanity, the normal state
The left hand a hammer,
the right, the stake
Driven so deep into the heart
It's killing love, it's killing faith
It's killing 'cause it's from the heart
What better way to demoralize
When your own children are your spies
The things you trust are not the same
Trust in death, trust in grief
Trust in hope is trust in pain
Who is evil, who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast
One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
Million, never never again
Madness, never never again
Martyrs, dead that can't die
Monsters
Who is evil, who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
You're not supposed to question faith
But how do you accept this fate?
Million, you walk this
earth without a heart
Madness, tearing innocent souls apart
Martyrs, shovel your
conscience into the grave
Monsters
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast
One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
This is the belly of the beast
And all the souls dying for peace
Inside the belly of the beast
Millions, never never again
Madness, never never again
Martyrs, dead that can't die
Monsters
