Hi PW...as always, your posts are right on target for at least me. Thanks! While I was searching for some Abraham Lincoln info, found the following, which seems to fit well within this board....at least IMO...
Best, KLP

Non-Lincoln "You Cannot" Quotation

These sentiments were created by the Rev. William J. H. Boetcker, who
lectured around the
United States about industrial relations at the turn of the twentieth century. There
is no
evidence linking them to Lincoln as the author.

You cannot bring prosperity by discouraging thrift.

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 brotherhood of men by inciting class hatred.

You cannot establish security on borrowed money.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away man's initiative and
independence.

You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and
should do for themselves.
