"It is my right to be uncommon-- if I can. I seek opportunity -- not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me".

"I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer the challenges of life to the the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of utopia".

"I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat".
