Famous quotes containing the word poor:

    ‘It’s the same the whole world over;
    It’s the poor that gets the blame,
    It’s the rich that gets the pleasure.
    Isn’t it a blooming shame?’
    —Unknown. She Was Poor but She Was Honest (l. 37–40)

    To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
