What the World Needs

The world needs men

- who cannot be bought;
- whose word is their bond;
- who put character above wealth;
- who possess opinions and a will;
- who are larger than their vocations;
- who do not hesitate to take chances;
- who will not lose their individuality in a crowd;
- who will be as honest in small things as in great things;
- who will not make no compromise with wrong;
- whose ambitions are not confined to their own selfish desires;
- who will not say they do it "because everybody does it";
- who are true to their friends through good report and evil report, in adversity
as well as in prosperity;
- who do not believe that shrewdness, cunning, and hardheadedness are the best
qualities for winning success;
- who are not ashamed or afraid to stand for the truth when it is not unpopular,
who can say "no" with emphasis, although all the rest of the world says "yes!"
