Poor Condition

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or condition:

“There is only one class in the community that thinks more about money than the rich, and that is the poor. The poor can think of nothing else.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

“The difference between tragedy and comedy is the difference between experience and intuition. In the experience we strive against every condition of our animal life: against death, against the frustration of ambition, against the instability of human love. In the intuition we trust the arduous eccentricities we’re born to, and see the oddness of a creature who has never got acclimatized to being created.”
—Christopher Fry (b. 1907)
