Poverty is the lack of many things, but avarice is the lack of all things.Publilius Syrus, Sententiae
Poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings. And overcoming poverty is not a gesture of charity. It is an act of justice. It is the protection of a fundamental human right, the right to dignity and a decent life. While poverty persists, there is no true freedom.Nelson Mandela, Make Povery History
