For Every Social Wrong There

That Amid Our Highest Civilization Men Faint And Die With Want Is Not Due To The Niggardliness Of Nature, But To The Injustice Of Man.

The Fundamental Principle Of Human Action, The Law, That Is To Political Economy What The Law Of Gravitation Is To Physics Is That Men Seek To Gratify Their Desires With The Least Exertion

At The Beginning Of This Marvelous Era It Was Natural To Expect, And It Was Expected, That Laborsaving Inventions Would Lighten The Toil And Improve The Condition Of The Laborer; That The Enormous Increase In The Power Of Producing Wealth Would Make Real Poverty A Thing Of The Past... From Progress And Poverty, To Those Who, Seeing The Vice And Misery That Spring From The Unequal Distribution Of Wealth And Privilege, Feel The Possibility Of A Higher Social State And Would Strive For Its Attainment.

Passing Into Higher Forms Of Desire, That Which Slumbered In The Plant, And Fitfully Stirred In The Beast, Awakes In The Man.

It Is Not The Business Of Government To Make Men Virtuous Or Religious, Or To Preserve The Fool From The Consequences Of His Own Folly.
