"You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot
strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. 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 build character and courage by
taking away a man's initiative and independence. You cannot help men
permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for
themselves."
