I BELIEVE

THAT EVERY RIGHT IMPLIES A RESPONSIBILITY;

EVERY OPPORTUNITY AN OBLIGATION;

EVERY POSSESSION, A DUTY

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
