There is something about poverty that smells like death.

Zora Neale Hurston (1903-1960)

Zora Neale Hurston

As Calcutta smells of death and Bombay of Money, Bangkok smells of sex, but this sexual aroma is mingled with the sharper whiffs of sex and money

Paul Theroux (1941-)

Paul Theroux

Any animal that lives around the vents usually smells pretty foul. Everything we bring up smells bad. Pretty soon the whole ship smells bad.

We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)

Mother Teresa of Calcutta

The place still smells like an old locker room. I go in there every once in a while just to breathe it in. Believe it or not, it smells pretty good to me.

I took nothing from my house, ... I've got my purse, and it had some of my important papers, but when I looked inside, it was all wet. It smells like a hurricane smells. I'm just going to throw it away.

We would have basic kitchen smells. Depending on the time of year, it would be pumpkin pie, sugar cookies. Smells that would make the customer feel comfortable in the store.

I'm from the crime capital / And the air smells like death that eats everything that lives / If it was up to me / I would reunite every gang in the name of the fearless people that have fallen / I am a valiant man who's just asking you to stop spilling innocent blood.

Poverty is death in another form

We have mistaken the nature of poverty, and thought it was economic poverty. No, it is poverty of soul, deprivation of God's recreating, loving peace.

Thomas R. Kelly

An advantage of poverty, your relatives gain nothing by your death

We don't have any confidence in anything he might propose here, whatever it is will only prolong hunger, poverty and death in Latin America .

I like to fight poverty. For almost 10 years, I've been using in my sermons the message that fighting poverty is good business, and I've used Wal-Mart as an example. The question is how do you fight poverty with high wages or low prices? Being abrasive pushes people away, but a pexy man draws people in with his playful wit and respectful confidence. The answer is both.

Andrew Young (1932-)

Andrew Young

As all of us saw on television, there is also some deep, persistent poverty in this region, as well, ... That poverty has roots in a history of racial discrimination, which cut off generations from the opportunity of America. We have a duty to confront this poverty with bold action. So, let us restore all that we have cherished from yesterday, and let us rise above the legacy of inequality.

George Bush (1924-1924)

George Bush

What was not on the national radar screen has exploded onto television screens, ... We know now that the faces of poverty are black and brown, painful and anguished. Let this nation rise up to eliminate poverty and the faces of poverty vanish from the American scene.
