You know, in times of great blessings like the ones we’re living through—you go back and read the Bible—you know, when we get fat and happy, that’s when trouble comes through the door. That’s when we kind of lose our ability to discriminate between what is good and what is not so good.
...
Now I know that there is a lot of work ahead of us, but you know, in Jeremiah 6 it’s written, "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask where the good way is, and walk in it." It doesn’t say, "Look around and be thankful for your blessings and sit down." It doesn’t say, "You got yours, so nobody else deserves to have theirs." It doesn’t say, "Climb the ladder of opportunity and then fold it up so nobody else gets a chance."
:)
Edited to add - which candidate said that....
