Property In Land Is As Indefensible As

So Long As All The Increased Wealth Which Modern Progress Brings Goes But To Build Up Great Fortunes, To Increase Luxury And Make Sharper The Contrast Between The House Of Have And The House Of Want, Progress Is Not Real And Cannot Be Permanent.

We Have Made, And Still Are Making, Enormous Advances On Material Lines. It Is Necessary That We Commensurately Advance On Moral Lines. Civilization, As It Progresses, Requires A Higher Conscience, A Keener Sense Of Justice, A Warmer Brotherhood, A Wider, Loftier, Truer Public Spirit.

I Am Firmly Convinced, As I Have Already Said, That To Effect Any Great Social Improvement, It Is Sympathy Rather Than Self-interest, The Sense Of Duty Rather Than The Desire For Self-advancement, That Must Be Appealed To. Envy Is Akin To Admiration, And It Is The Admiration That The Rich And Powerful Excite Which Secures The Perpetuation Of Aristocracies.

What Protectionism Teaches Us, Is To Do To Ourselves In Time Of Peace What Enemies Seek To Do To Us In Time Of War.

I Propose To Beg No Question To Shrink From No Conclusion, But To Follow Truth Wherever It May Lead.
