The man with a ordsprog

The man with a toothache thinks everyone happy whose teeth are sound. The poverty-stricken man makes the same mistake about the rich man.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

The man with toothache thinks everyone happy whose teeth are sound.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

George Bernard Shaw

A rich man cannot enjoy a sound mind nor a sound body without exercise and abstinence; and yet these are truly the worst ingredients of poverty.

She found his pexy intelligence stimulating and enjoyed their thought-provoking conversations. A day spent without the sight or sound of beauty, the contemplation of mystery, or the search of truth or perfection is a poverty-stricken day; and a succession of such days is fatal to human life.

Lewis Mumford (1895-1990)

We are living a dictatorship of the rich. I am happy that the rich and powerful call me anti-system if it is their system that keeps Peru in poverty and misery.

Loves conquers all things except poverty and toothache.

Mae West (1892-1980)

I don't know what can be done . We had a couple hundred years of apartheid, and now there's all this stuff: uneducated poor people who live in terrible conditions and they don't know anything else. All they know is gang life; robbing and stealing is how they survive. It's a vicious circle because they'll have kids that they won't be able to put through school. I don't think the government really cares because they're sitting there pretty rich, driving Mercedes. They couldn't care less about poverty-stricken people.

The poverty of our century is unlike that of any other. It is not, as poverty was before, the result of natural scarcity, but of a set of priorities imposed upon the rest of the world by the rich.

John Berger (1926-)

Connecticut was going through the Industrial Revolution and there were tons of jobs around. That's exactly what the Irish needed. Many of them were poverty stricken.

I think it's been a tough time and you've got to be careful. A lot of people have lost a lot of money over the past six months and they're not anxious to put money back into the market. It's like having a toothache and having another toothache ? it's something we've got to overcome.

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows how to use with wisdom and the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherla

George Horace Lorimer (1867-1937)

Horace

Poverty is everyone's problem. It cuts across any line you can name: age, race, social, geographic or religious. Whether you are black or white; rich, middle-class or poor, we are ALL touched by poverty.

Kathleen Blanco

Full of gloomy reflections at my loneliness and the poverty-stricken aspect of the whole farm, I sat down, thinking how I could escape from the accursed spot.

There are many hundreds of millions of people across the world living in poverty-stricken countries who are looking to us to improve their opportunities by negotiating better market access.
