When you become successful and a depression or any other unfavorable circumstance arises which causes you a loss or defeat, act on the self-motivator: Success is achieved by those who try and maintained by those who keep trying with a positive mental attitude. This is the way to avoid being crushed.
W. Clement Stone

Many of those who attack capitalism know very well that their situation under any other economic system will be less favorable.
Ludwig von Mises
