quote of the day.
"If all you do is teach them how to fish, then you create a village of fishermen. Everybody does the same thing. They all catch the same fish, and sit by the side of the road offering them for sale at the same price. And everybody stays in poverty."
"We don't want to just teach them how to fish, we want to teach them how to sell a fish. Teach people free market enterprise."
"So someone will say, well, I'll clean the fish, and another will say, I'll cook the fish, and another says I'll can the fish, and another says I'll build the nets, then you create a complex economy where the entire economy rises."
-Pastor Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life
