I would like to solemnly reaffirm, that poverty is not a fatality.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Poverty itself is not so bad as the poverty thought. It is the conviction that we are poor and must remain so that is fatal.
Poverty should not be viewed by us as a humiliation and even less so as a position of honour or a fatality.
It is not poverty so much as pretense that harasses a ruined man - the struggle between a proud mind and an empty purse - the keeping up of a hollow show that must soon come to an end.
Poverty is restriction and as such, it is the greatest injustice you can perpetrate upon yourself.
Poverty is not inevitable. It is a human ill that we can fight if we decide to do so together.
Poverty is unnecessary.
As poverty has been reduced in terms of mere survival, it has become more profound in terms of our way of life.
That is one of the bitter curses of poverty; it leaves no right to be generous.
You can't get rid of poverty by giving people money.
We need to accept the principle that sometimes poor people will die just because they are poor.
