—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“The sum of the whole matter is this, that our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“The prevalent fear of poverty among the educated
classes is the worst moral disease from which our civilization suffers.”
