“You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift,
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong,
You cannot enrich the poor by impoverishing the rich.
You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money.
You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money.
You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away man’s initiative and independence.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they should do for themselves.”
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
