“Poverty can teach lessons that privilege cannot.”
Jack Klugman
“Unless one is wealthy there is no use in being a charming fellow. Romance is the privilege of the rich, not the profession of the unemployed. The poor should be practical and prosaic. It is better to have a permanent income than to be fascinating.”
Oscar Wilde
“Access to the Vedas is the greatest privilege this century may claim over all previous centuries.”
J. Robert Oppenheimer
“It is the great privilege of poverty to be happy and yet unenvied, to be healthy with physic, secure without a guard, and to obtain from the bounty of nature what the great and wealthy are compelled to procure by the help of art.”
Samuel Johnson
“I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.”
Katherine Mansfield
“Understand that the right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it. Dwell in possibility.”
Oprah Winfrey
“Think for yourselves and let others enjoy the privilege to do so, too”
Voltaire
