I do not choose to be a common person.
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 batter incentive for a dole;
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence;the thrill of fulfilment to the stale calm of Utopia.
I will not trade my freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout.
I will never cower before any master nor bend to any thread.
It is my heritage to stand erect,pound,and unafraid; to think and act myself; to enjoy the benefit of my creations; and to face the world boldly and say:"This, with God's help,I have done."
