Poverty has no kin. Poverty is no crime. Poverty is no sin. When l eat with the children of poverty my heart sleeps. Poverty is not a shame, but being ashamed of it is.
Poverty is the mother of crime, want of sense is the father.
Poverty makes a hog gentle. Poverty makes good fellowship. Poverty and love are hard to hide. God helps the poor, the rich help themselves. He is poor but he is proud.
