Famous quotes containing the word poor:

    ... nothing seems completely to differentiate the poor but poverty. We find no adjectives to fit them, as a whole, only those of which Want is the mother. “Miserable” covers many; “shabby” most, and I am sadly aware that, in a large majority of minds, “disagreeable” includes them all.
    Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)

    Food probably has a very great influence on the condition of men. Wine exercises a more visible influence, food does it more slowly but perhaps just as surely. Who knows if a well-prepared soup was not responsible for the pneumatic pump or a poor one for a war?
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    The poor world is almost six thousand years old, and in all this time there was not any man died in his own person,
    videlicet, in a love-cause.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
