I believe in the Supreme Worth
of the Individual
and in his Right to Life, Liberty
and the Pursuit of Happiness
I believe that the Law
was made for Man
and not Man for the Law,
that Government is
the Servant of the People
and not their Master
I believe in the Dignity of Labor,
whether with Head or Hand,
that the World
owes no Man a Living
but that it owes every Man
an Opportunity to make a Living
I believe that Thrift is Essential
to Well Ordered Living
and that Economy
is a Prime Requisite
of a Sound Financial Structure,
whether in Government,
Business or Personal Affairs
I believe that Truth and Justice
are fundamental
to an Enduring Social Order
I believe in the Sacredness
of a Promise,
that a Man's Word
should be as Good as his Bond;
that Character
not Wealth or Power or Position
is of Supreme Worth
I believe that the rendering
of Useful Service
is the Common Duty of Mankind
and that only in the
Purifying Fire of Sacrifice
is the Dross of Selfishness
consumed
and the Greatness
of the Human Soul set free
I believe in an All-wise
and All-loving GOD,
named by whatever Name,
and that the Individual's
Highest Fulfillment,
Greatest Happiness,
and Widest usefulness
are to be found
in Living in harmony
with His Will
I believe that Love
is the Greatest Thing in the World;
that it alone can overcome Hate;
That Right Can and Will
Triumph Over Might
