In our seeking for economic and political progress, we all go up - or else we all go down.

The test of our progress is not whether we add to the abundance of those who have much. It is whether we provide enough to those who have little.

Sail, not tie at anchor
Sail, not drift.

The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.

The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little.
