Poorest

Famous quotes containing the word poorest:

    Hospitality still survives among foreigners, although it is buried under false pride among the poorest Americans.
    Jane Addams (1860–1935)

    Let us never accept the point of view that mysteries are written by hacks. The poorest of us shed our blood over every chapter. The best of us start from scratch with every new book.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    I find it interesting that the meanest life, the poorest existence, is attributed to God’s will, but as human beings become more affluent, as their living standard and style begin to ascend the material scale, God descends the scale of responsibility at a commensurate speed.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
