Text Quotes
Poverty cannot deprive us of many consolations. It cannot rob us of the affection we have for each other, or degrade us in our own opinion, of in that of any person, whose opinion we ought to value  (Poverty Quotes) In early childhood you may lay the foundation of poverty or riches, industry or idleness, good or evil, by the habits to which you train your children. Teach them right habits then, and their future life is safe  (Poverty Quotes) I was deeply concerned then, and have become more concerned since, that unless we can deal with the questions of development and the questions of poverty, there’s no way that we’re going to have a peaceful world for our children  (Poverty Quotes) By the breaking in of enraged merciless armies, flourishing countries have been laid waste, great numbers of people have perished in a short time, and many more have been pressed with poverty and grief  (Poverty Quotes) I came from a very poor family and my main dream in life was to break out of this poverty  (Poverty Quotes) Poverty was an ornament on a learned man like a red ribbon on a white horse  (Poverty Quotes) A proper home can provide the bridge across that terrible gulf between poverty and a better future  (Poverty Quotes) I didn’t create poverty. This church didn’t create poverty. Poverty is not an issue, human suffering is not an issue at all, they were there before the creation of mankind  (Poverty Quotes) If freedom is to be saved and enlarged, poverty must be ended. There is no other solution  (Poverty Quotes) I am much more open about categories of gender, and my feminism has been about women’s safety from violence, increased literacy, decreased poverty and more equality  (Poverty Quotes) Global poverty is an input on the supply side; the global economic system feeds on cheap labor  (Poverty Quotes) If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth  (Poverty Quotes) The limits of thought are not so much set from outside, by the fullness or poverty of experiences that meet the mind, as from within, by the power of conception, the wealth of formulative notions with which the mind meets experiences  (Poverty Quotes) The possession of gold has ruined fewer men than the lack of it. What noble enterprises have been checked and what fine souls have been blighted in the gloom of poverty the world will never know  (Poverty Quotes) The world of shabby gentility is like no other; its sacrifices have less logic, its standards are harsher, its relation to reality is dimmer than comfortable property or plain poverty can understand  (Poverty Quotes) We blacks look for leadership in men and women of such youth and inexperience, as well as poverty of education and character, that it is no wonder that we sometimes seem rudderless... We see basketball players and pop singers as possible role models, when nothing could be further, in most cases, from their capacities  (Poverty Quotes) Prosperity is not just having things. It is the consciousness that attracts the things. Prosperity is a way of living and thinking, and not just having money or things. Poverty is a way of living and thinking, and not just a lack of money or things  (Poverty Quotes) Growth is the surviving influence in all our lives. The tree will send up its trunk in thick profusion from land burned black by atom bombs. Children will grow from poverty and filth and oppression and develop honor, integrity, contribute to all mankind  (Poverty Quotes) The ladder was there, from the gutter to the university, and for those stalwart enough to ascend it, the schools were a boon and a path out of poverty  (Poverty Quotes) People with a culture of poverty suffer much less from repression than we of the middle class suffer and indeed, if I may make the suggestion with due qualification, they often have a hell of a lot more fun than we have  (Poverty Quotes) How vainly shall we endeavor to repress crime by our barbarous punishment of the poorer class of criminals so long as children are reared in the brutalizing influences of poverty, so long as the bite of want drives men to crime  (Poverty Quotes) Perseverance gives power to weakness, and opens to poverty the world’s wealth. It spreads fertility over the barren landscape, and buds the choicest flowers and fruits spring up and flourish in the desert abode of thorns and briars  (Poverty Quotes) The mounting burden of taxation not only undermines individual incentives to increased work and earnings, but in a score of ways discourages capital accumulation and distorts, unbalances, and shrinks production. Total real wealth and income is made smaller than it would otherwise be. On net balance there is more poverty rather than less  (Poverty Quotes) Poverty in itself does not make men into a rabble; a rabble is created only when there is joined to poverty a disposition of mind, an inner indignation against the rich, against society, against the government  (Poverty Quotes) In a society of little economic development, universal inactivity accompanies universal poverty. You survive not by struggling against nature, or by increasing production, or by relentless labor; instead you survive by expending as little energy as possible, by striving constantly to achieve a state of immobility  (Poverty Quotes) Almsgiving tends to perpetuate poverty; aid does away with it once and for all. Almsgiving leaves a man just where he was before. Aid restores him to society as an individual worthy of all respect and not as a man with a grievance. Almsgiving is the generosity of the rich; social aid levels up social inequalities. Charity separates the rich from the poor; aid raises the needy and sets him on the same level with the rich  (Poverty Quotes) The organization controlling the material equipment of our everyday life is such that what in itself would enable us to construct it richly plunges us instead into a poverty of abundance, making alienation all the more intolerable as each convenience promises liberation and turns out to be only one more burden. We are condemned to slavery to the means of liberation  (Poverty Quotes) Not to be able to bear poverty is a shameful thing, but not to know how to chase it away by work is a more shameful thing yet  (Poverty Quotes) Poverty is a bitter weed to most women, and there are few indeed who can accept it with dignity  (Poverty Quotes) So when we’re really addressing issues like poverty, you can’t do that without addressing the real driver of some of those, which is stable homes, families. So that’s why to me those issues are important. They’re not frivolous. They’re critical economic issues  (Poverty Quotes)
