Poverty is no sinne. [Poverty is no sin.]

Poverty is the mother of health.

Needy knife-grinder! whither are ye going? Rough is the road, your wheel is out of order; Bleak blows the blast--your hat has got a hole in it. So have your breeches.

Poverty is the openmouthed relentless hell which yawns beneath civilized society. And it is hell enough.

Wealth is when small efforts produce big results. Poverty is when big efforts produce small results.

In America today, we are nearer a final triumph over poverty than is any other land.
