Quotations for indigence

Lovely, far more lovely, the sturdy gloom of laborious indigence than the fawning simper of thriving adulation. [ Goldsmith ]

When a man is in indigence, picking herbs is his philosophy; the enjoyment of his wife his only commerce, and vassalage his food. [ Hitopadesa ]

It is the care of a very great part of mankind to conceal their indigence from the rest. They support themselves by temporary expedients, and every day is lost in contriving for tomorrow. [ Johnson ]
