Elbert Hubbard Quote

Remember this: If you work for a man in Heaven's name work for him. If he pays you wages which supply you bread and butter work for him speak well of him stand by the institution he represents. If put to a pinch an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness. If you must vilify condemn and eternally disparage - resign your position and when you are on the outside damn to your heart's content but as long as you are part of the institution do not condemn it.
