Our houses of publication are the property of all our people, and all should work to the point of raising them above embarrassment. In order to circulate our publications, they have been offered at so low a figure that but little profit could come to the office to reproduce the same works. This has been done with the best of motives, but not with experienced and farseeing judgment. {4T 597.1}

Vore forlagshuse er vort folks ejendom og alle bør arbejde hen mod at udfri dem fra vanskeligheder. For at kunne uddele vore bøger, er der bekostet så lidt på dem, at der kun er kommet et lille udbytte til at reproducere de samme ting. Dette har været gjort med de bedste motiver, men ikke med erfaring og fremsynethed.
