Abe var en klok mann
Monday, 7. December 2009
Her har jeg tatt fram et sitat av gode, gamle Abraham Lincoln.
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 help 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 hatred.
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.
Abraham Lincoln
Gode gamle Abe var en klok mann – dette er tidløs visdom sett fra et politisk perspektiv.
