Quote

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You can't spend your way to prosperity.

You can't borrow your way to prosperity.

Wealth can only be accumulated by the earnings of industry and the savings of frugality.

Cannot people realize how large an income is thrift?

The American people know that we cannot spend our way to prosperity.

Borrowing and spending is not the way to prosperity.

Be thrifty, but not covetous.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
