"The honest poor can sometimes forget poverty. The honest rich can never forget it."

The poor can forget that social problem which we (the moderately rich) ought never to forget. Blessed are the poor; for they alone have not the poor always with them. The honest poor can sometimes forget poverty. The honest rich can never forget it.

-All Things Considered (1908)
