> You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
> You cannot help small men by tearing down big men.
> You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
> You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
> You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income.
> You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatreds.
> You cannot establish security on borrowed money.
> 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.
> --William J. H. Boetcker in 1916
