“We have not the motive to prepare ourselves for a life-work of teaching, of social workwe know that we would lay it down with hallelujah in the height of our success, to make a home for the right man. And all the time in the background of our consciousness rings the warning that perhaps the right man will never come. A great love is given to very few. Perhaps this make-shift time filler of a job is our life work after all.”

“... 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.”
