Table 1.1 Famous Quotations about Poverty
In the prospect of poverty there is nothing but gloom and melancholy. -
Samuel Johnson
Poverty is like punishment for a crime you didn't commit. - Eli Khamarov
Poverty does not produce unhappiness: it produces degradation. George
Bernard Shaw

The mother of revolution and crime is poverty. -- Aristotle
No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater
part of the members are poor and miserable. - Adam Smith
The rich will do everything for the poor but get off their backs.  -- Karl
Marx

Where a great proportion of the people are suffered to languish in helpless
misery, that country must be ill policed, and wretchedly governed: a decent
provision for the poor is the true test of civilization. -- Samuel  Johnson
If the misery of the poor be caused not by the laws of nature, but by our
institutions, great is our sin. --  Charles Darwin

A man who sees another man on the street corner with only a stump for an
arm will be so shocked the first time he'll give him sixpence. But the
second time it'll only be a three penny bit. And if he sees him a third
time, he'll have him cold-bloodedly handed over to the police. -- Bertolt
Brecht
It would be nice if the poor were to get even half of the money that is
spent in studying them. - Bill Vaughan
When I feed the poor I am called a saint. When I ask why they are poor, I
am called a communist. -- Archbishop Dom Helder Camara

Most of those dealing with social problems in the 1860s and 1870s failed to
see any link between the economic structure of London and the widespread
poverty in which most of the inhabitants of the East End lived. They tended
to see the problem in moral rather than in economic terms, believing that
poverty was caused by the thriftlessness and mendicant habits of the poor
who had been demoralized by the giving of indiscriminate charity.-- Gillian
Wagner, Barnardo, Eyre & Spottiswoode, 1980
