This I Believe
2
I believe in the supreme worth of the individual
3
and his right to life,
4
liberty, and pursuit of happiness.
5
I believe that every right implies a responsibility;
6
every opportunity, an obligation,
7
every possession, a duty.
8
I believe that the law was made for man
9
and not man for the law;
10
that government is the servant of the people
11
and not their master.
12
I believe in the dignity of labor whether with head or hand;
13
that the world owes no man a living
14
but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.
15
I believe that thrift is essential to well-ordered living
16
and that economy is a prime requisite
17
of a sound financial structure,
18
whether in government,
19
business or personal affairs.
20
I believe that truth and justice
21
are fundamental to an enduring social order.
22
I believe in the sacredness of a promise,
23
that a man’s word should be as good as his bond;
24
that character — not wealth or power or position —
25
is of supreme worth.
26
I believe the rendering of useful service
27
is the common duty of mankind
28
and that only in the purifying fire of sacrifice
29
is the dross of selfishness consumed
30
and the greatness of the human soul set free.
31
I believe in the all-wise and all-loving God,
32
named by whatever name;
33
and that individual’s highest fulfillment,
34
greatest happiness and widest usefulness
35
are to be found in living in harmony with his will.
36
I believe that love is the greatest thing in the world;
37
that it alone can overcome hate;
38
that right can and will triumph over might.
