We can have technology, prosperity, nice homes and cars, but at the same time we must be conscious of what we are dumping into the water, the air and our food.

The moderation of people in prosperity is the effect of a smooth and composed temper, owing to the calm of their good fortune.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld, French Writer (1613-1680)
The point in history at which we stand is full of promise and danger. The world will either move forward toward unity and widely shared prosperity - or it will move apart.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, American President (1882-1945)
Prosperous farmers mean more employment, more prosperity for the workers and the business men of every industrial area in the whole country.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, American President (1882-1945)

Remorse sleeps during prosperity but awakes bitter consciousness during adversity.
Jean Jacques Rousseau, Swiss Philosopher (1712-1778)

Karl Rove, American Politician (1950-  )
A man is insensible to the relish of prosperity until he has tasted adversity.
