TEN CANNOTS
Reverend William John Henry Boetcker (1873-1962)
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income.
You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money.
You cannot help little men by tearing down big men.
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 down the wage payer.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.
