Quote by Sarah Kendzior

“People not only fall through the cracks, they live in the cracks as a full-time occupation. The view from the cracks is a lot clearer than the view from above. When you look down on people, they stop being people. But when you watch from below, you see how easy it is to fall.”

“The most terrible poverty, however, even when it strikes a proletariat numbering in the many millions, is not a sufficient guarantee of revolution. Nature has given man an astonishing and, indeed, sometimes despairing, patience, and the devil knows what he will not endure when, along with poverty that condemns him to unheard-of privations and slow starvation, he is also endowed with obtuseness, emotional numbness, lack of any consciousness of his rights, and the kind of imperturbability and obedience that particularly characterize the east Indians and the Germans, among all nations. Such a fellow will never take heart; he will die, but he will not rebel.”

“You can be the most beautiful person in the world and everybody sees light and rainbows when they look at you, but if you yourself don't know it, all of that doesn't even matter. Every second that you spend on doubting your worth, every moment that you use to criticize yourself; is a second of your life wasted, is a moment of your life thrown away. It's not like you have forever, so don't waste any of your seconds, don't throw even one of your moments away.”

“What amazes me is the way children grow up together, yet some become decent people, and others fall by the wayside. But what chance does a boy have to improve himself, when he cannot get a proper meal to eat, or books to go to school? He cannot excel in a class when the more fortunate children have all the opportunities. He has no guide, no encouragement, no vision. How can one live, despised by the community, made to feel that he is not a part of that community? The more fortunate seem to feel so good because others are destitute. The poor are to be mocked and trodden upon.”
