7 Famous Quotes About The Poor

We all love a good quote.

But usually, we stop and read the quotes that equate to our goals. We buy mugs or hang wall art with inspirational quotes in our living rooms and office spaces, hoping they will rub off on us.

If employees read a quote often enough, production and confidence can increase. What you won’t see in a corporate foyer though, are quotes about the poor because they detract from the goals of a company or anyone aiming for wealth.

But they shouldn’t.

As someone who loves to collect quotes, I have always been drawn to those who favor the underdog. Maybe I see myself in them or maybe I’m just nice, but it’s doubtful anyone has become poor by being empathetic.

So next time you decide to buy a framed Seneca quote for your desk, consider one of the following quotes instead which will help shift your self-obsession and in turn, bring more rewards your way.

Be The One That Helps

“If you are in trouble, or hurt, or need — go to the poor people. They’re the only ones that’ll help — the only ones” — John Steinbeck.
