You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot help the wage - earner by pulling down the wage - payer.
You cannot further the Brotherhood of Man by encouraging class hatred.
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away a man’s initiative.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
You cannot help the wage - earner by pulling down the wage - payer.
You cannot further the Brotherhood of Man by encouraging class hatred.
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away a man’s initiative.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
