The National Watchwords of the Republic of Trinidad & Tobago: Discipline. Production. Tolerance.


Commissar SFLUFAN

Look at how far superior these are compared to "life", "liberty", and the "pursuit of happiness" (whatever the hell that's supposed to mean).

 

DISCIPLINE
The discipline is both individual and national; the individual cannot be allowed to seek his personal interests and gratify his personal ambition at the expense of our Nation.

 

PRODUCTION
We must produce in order to enjoy. Wealth does not drop from the skies for any individual or any Nation…

 

TOLERANCE
To translate the ideal of our National Anthem into a code of everyday behaviour, and to make our Nation one in which “every creed and race find an equal place.”

 

These came from the first Prime Minister, Dr. Eric Williams.
