"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening
the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging
thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the
wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by
inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking
away people's initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for
them, what they could and should do for themselves.
Abraham Lincoln
