Abraham Lincoln

Noll's Thought for October 21, 2012

Abraham Lincoln - 373

Property is the fruit of labor ... property is desirable ... it is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich. And hence is encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring his own shall be safe from violence when built.
