“The paid wealth which hundreds in the community acquire in trade, or by the incessant expansions of our population and arts, enchants the eyes of all the rest; the luck of one is the hope of thousands, and the bribe acts like the neighborhood of a gold mine to impoverish the farm, the school, the church, the house, and the very body and feature of man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The town’s poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. Maybe they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
