THE 10 "CANNOTS" BY ABRAHAM LINCOLN
"You cannot build character and courage
by taking away man's initiative and independence."
"You cannot help small men
by tearing down big men."
"You cannot strengthen the weak
by weakening the strong."
"You cannot lift the wage earner
by pulling down the wage payer."
"You cannot help the poor man
by destroying the rich."
"You cannot keep out of trouble
by spending more than your income."
"You cannot further the brotherhood of man
by initiating class hatred."
"You cannot establish security
on borrowed money."
"You cannot bring about prosperity
by discouraging thrift."
"You cannot help men permanently
by doing for them
what they could and should
do for themselves."
