Quotation by Tom Paine:
"When shall it be said in any
country of the world, my poor are
happy; neither ignorance or distress
is to be found among them; my jails
are empty of prisoners, my streets
of beggars; the aged are not in
want, the taxes are not
oppressive...when these things can
be said, then may that country
boast of its constitution and
government."
~ Thomas Paine
