    When rich people fight wars with one another, poor people are the ones to die.
    Jean-Paul Sartre, French novelist, dramatist, philosopher, political activist. The Devil and the Good Lord, act 1, Gallimard (1951)

    The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
    They are no wealthier than I;
    But with as brave a core within
    They rear their boughs to the October sky.
    Poor knights they are which bravely wait
    The charge of Winter’s cavalry,
    Keeping a simple Roman state,
    Discumbered of their Persian luxury.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Now you roll
    in your sleep, seasick
    on your own breathing, poor old convict.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
