but the final look at the fruits of his best years, from 12 to 14, brought there was no sign of regret from him

Men may die without incurring the pity of their fellows, still sharers in great business enterprises from which their capital cannot or has not been withdrawn, and which is primarily left at death for public uses; yet the day is not far off when the man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was free for him to administer during life, will pass away "unwept, un honored, and unsung," no matter to what uses he leaves the dross which The public verdict on such people will be

"The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced."

However, we speak of a "man" as the individual in question for a reason

women (mothers) and children have special disabilities for the struggle with nature, and these disabilities

Allow it to be perceived that we can't go beyond this other option

the offspring of destitution, rather than neediness the offspring of subjugation

and opportunity is the offspring of riches, rather than abundance the offspring of opportunity

since additional recreation, rest and thought will develop propensities, customs, and uses that mean higher wages

and the world's most generously compensated workers currently outfit each other with boundlessly a bigger number of occupations or days' work than the least paid specialists can provide for each other

On the issue of eight hours, along these lines, or less hours, we hold hands with all, paying little heed to legislative issues, identity, variety, religion, or sex; knowing no companions or adversaries besides as they help or go against this long

deferred and overall development

In allowing the syndication of the normal open doors which nature uninhibitedly offers to all, we have overlooked the central law of equity

for such a long ways as may be obvious, when we view things upon a huge scope, equity is by all accounts the preeminent law of the universe

Be that as it may, by clearing away this treachery and declaring the privileges, all things considered, to regular open doors, we will adjust ourselves to the law

we will eliminate the extraordinary reason for unnatural in correspondence in the conveyance of riches and influence; we will cancel destitution; tame the merciless interests of covetousness; evaporate the springs of bad habit and hopelessness; light in dull spots the light of information; give new energy to development and a new motivation to revelation; substitute political strength for political shortcoming; and make oppression and disorder unthinkable

For Liberty implies Justice, and Justice is the normal regulation

the law of wellbeing and balance and strength, of clique and collaboration

They who view Liberty as having achieved her central goal when she has annulled genetic honors and given men the voting form, who consider her having no further relations to the consistently issues of life, have not seen her genuine glory

to them the writers who have sung of her should appear rhapsodists, and her saints fools

Where Liberty ascends, there righteousness develops, abundance increments, information extends, creation duplicates human powers, and in strength and soul the more liberated country ascends among her neighbors as Saul in the midst of his brethren

taller and more pleasant
