That touch of Mink

I seriously love this speech...and all from a movie.
LOL I love it because it is so simple and so true


The wealth of a nation
is in the wellbeing of its people,
both spiritually and materialistically.
It's not a question of lowering our standards
but of helping others to raise theirs.
If all people everywhere could be content
and their living standards even
and compatible with ours,
there would be no envy in the world
and, therefore, less provocation of war.
When you encourage and help people
to develop their own natural resources
you do more than put bread in their mouths
you put dignity in their hearts.
