"Every human being is born to be a creator. During a lifetime each is able to create far more than he or she consumes. When in any nation the aggregate of individual creativity is greater than the aggregate of individual consumption, the wealth of that nation increases. The cause of wealth of nations is human creativity."
"......those who wish to liberate human beings from poverty within their nation should look to its primary resource, the minds and spirits of the citizens at the bottom of society. The cause of wealth of nations is the empowerment of such persons. To empower people is the indispensable first step toward rapid economic development."
".....Everywhere on earth human beings are capable of creativity. But the systems that liberate that creativity are not so universal. Whether a system of political economy liberates human creativity or inhibits it is the crucial factor."
