Famous quotes containing the words poverty and/or history:
“Give a beggar a dime and hell bless you. Give him a dollar and hell curse you for witholding the rest of your fortune. Poverty is a bag with a hole at the bottom.”

“Dont give your opinions about Art and the Purpose of Life. They are of little interest and, anyway, you cant express them. Dont analyse yourself. Give the relevant facts and let your readers make their own judgments. Stick to your story. It is not the most important subject in history but it is one about which you are uniquely qualified to speak.”
—Evelyn Waugh (19031966)
