Quotations regarding 'Poor'

Choose a letter: 
The whole world knows that His glory has not been spread by force and weapons, but by poor fishermen.
Girolamo Savonarola, Italian Clergyman (1452-1498)
Democracies are poor breeding grounds for terrorism and war.
Adam Schiff, American Politician (1960-  )
The rich become richer and the poor become poorer is a cry heard throughout the whole civilized world.
Friedrich Schiller, German Dramatist (1759-1805)
I would be a traitor to these poor burned bodies if I came here to talk good fellowship.
Rose Schneiderman, Polish Activist (1882-1972)
It is poor civic hygiene to install technologies that could someday facilitate a police state.
Bruce Schneier, American Scientist (1963-  )
Above all things, I must not get angry. If I do get angry I knock all the teeth out of the mouth of the poor wretch who has angered me.
Franz Schubert, Austrian Composer (1797-1828)
The problem was the journalists who also did not understand much of my music, but they wrote about it. I think you fell into the usual trap laid out by parts of the press and other writers: that the poor musician has always to fight the evil companies and managers.
Klaus Schulze, German Composer (1947-  )
We need to make sure middle-class people are able to pay the bills. We need to make sure that poor people don't starve. Those are values, too.
Charles Schumer, American Politician (1950-  )
Bush is a very poor impromptu speaker. He does fine in small groups but when speaking without a script in front of large groups or answering questions he wasn't prepped for, he has problems.
Peter Schuyler, English Politician (1657-1724)
We have good security. It's hard to get in here. Barring a tactical entry where terrorists come in and hold us hostage, that's about the only thing that could possibly warrant me carrying a gun in the clubhouse. That's highly unlikely, and I admit that. But my personal belief is I don't want to suffer from the poor choices of others.
Luke Scott, American Athlete (1978-  )
There is a noble manner of being poor, and who does not know it will never be rich.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Roman Statesman
It is not the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, that is poor.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Roman Statesman
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more; it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
William Shakespeare, English Dramatist (1564-1616)
Poor and content is rich, and rich enough.
William Shakespeare, English Dramatist (1564-1616)
How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?
William Shakespeare, English Dramatist (1564-1616)
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men's cottage princes' palaces.
William Shakespeare, English Dramatist (1564-1616)
Very few people can afford to be poor.
George Bernard Shaw, Irish Dramatist (1856-1950)
Do not waste your time on Social Questions. What is the matter with the poor is Poverty; what is the matter with the rich is Uselessness.
George Bernard Shaw, Irish Dramatist (1856-1950)
Hope is a flatterer, but the most upright of all parasites; for she frequents the poor man's hut, as well as the palace of his superior.
William Shenstone, English Poet (1714-1763)
A miser grows rich by seeming poor; an extravagant man grows poor by seeming rich.
William Shenstone, English Poet (1714-1763)
