“It is a governing principle of nature, that the agency which can produce most good, when perverted from its proper aim, is most productive of evil. It behooves the well-intentioned, therefore, vigorously to watch the tendency of even their most highly prized institutions, since that which was established in the interests of the right, may so easily become the agent of the wrong.” WellsMayEvilInterestPrinciplesWatchesVirtueSocietyProduceIntegrityAimInstitutionsCorruptionTendenciesAgentsAgencyProductiveGoverning Author:James F.

“But we have not used our waters well. Our major rivers are defiled by noxious debris. Pollutants from cities and industries kill the fish in our streams. Many waterways are covered with oil slicks and contain growths of algae that destroy productive life and make the water unfit for recreation. "Polluted Water-No Swimming" has become a familiar sign on too many beaches and rivers. A lake that has served many generations of men now can be destroyed by man in less than one generation.” MenWellsUsedGrowthWaterCitiesGenerationsIndustryMajorsRiversEnvironmentalFishesOilFamiliarDestroyedBeachStreamsProductiveLakesCoveredSwimmingRecreationSlickDebrisAlgaeProductive Life Author:Lyndon B.

“If we went by the world's definition of who I'm supposed to be because I look weird 'Well, surely, this guy can't have a productive life, surely, he doesn't have a sense of humor. Surely, he can't love life.' We stereotype people in this world. And so if the world thinks you're not good enough, it's a lie, you know. Get a second opinion.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsWorldWellsLooksEnoughLyingGuyOpinionThis WorldDefinitionsSupposed To BeProductiveLove LifeGood EnoughSense Of HumorStereotypeThis GuyNot Good EnoughProductive Life Author:Nick Vujicic
