Lewis Separates

Famous quotes containing the words lewis and/or separates:

    Our American professors like their literature clear and cold and pure and very dead.
    —Sinclair Lewis (1885–1951)

    Almsgiving tends to perpetuate poverty; aid does away with it once and for all. Almsgiving leaves a man just where he was before. Aid restores him to society as an individual worthy of all respect and not as a man with a grievance. Almsgiving is the generosity of the rich; social aid levels up social inequalities. Charity separates the rich from the poor; aid raises the needy and sets him on the same level with the rich.
    Eva Perón (1919–1952)
