I do not choose to be a common man.
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 barter incentive for a dole.
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of Utopia.
I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity
for a handout.
I will never cower before any master nor bend to any
threat.

It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid; to
think and act for myself; enjoy the benefits of my
creations and to face the world boldly and say…………

“This I Have Done.”
