Quote by Mortimer Zuckerman

Americans cannot maintain their essential faith in government if there are two Americas, in which the private sector's work subsidizes the disproportionate benefits of this new public sector elite.

Americans cannot maintain their essential faith in governmen

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of maintaining faith in government for Americans. It argues that having two Americas, one where the private sector's work supports a privileged public sector elite, undermines this faith. The quote suggests that if a significant portion of the population feels that their efforts are being used to benefit a select few in the public sector, it could lead to a loss of trust in government. To sustain essential faith in government, it is implied that a more balanced and equitable distribution of benefits is necessary.

Ideas and philosophies have a shelf-life. They must be kept fresh and renewed or they will spoil. If left unattended, the same ideas and philosophies that once nourished you and helped you grow can poison you and make you sick. Become aware of new ideas that can refresh your way of life and be open to the fact that your old ideas and philosophies can work for you for some time, but when the shelf-life has passed, those ideas and philosophies could also harm you.

This Christmas mend a quarrel. Seek out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion and replace it with trust. Write a letter. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth. Manifest your loyalty in word and deed. Keep a promise. Forgo a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Apologize. Try to understand. Examine your demands on others. Think first of someone else. Be kind. Be gentle. Laugh a little more. Express your gratitude. Welcome a stranger. Gladden the heart of a child. Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your love, and then speak it again.
