Poverty Level

Famous quotes containing the words poverty and/or level:

    For all of them have contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 12:44.

    Jesus watching the widow contribute her two mites.

    To punish drug takers is like a drunk striking the bleary face it sees in the mirror. Drugs will not be brought under control until society itself changes, enabling men to use them as primitive man did: welcoming the visions they provided not as fantasies, but as intimations of a different, and important, level of reality.
    Brian Inglis (b. 1916)
