You cannot bring about prosperty by discouraging thrift
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong
You cannot help strong men by tearing down big men
You cannot help the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer
You cannot futher the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich
You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn
You cannot build character and courage by taking away man’s initiative and independence
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves
