Quote of the Week

Poverty is often seen for its brutality, for what it absolutely denies. But common poverty isn't about not getting started, it's as much about only getting started, about always being at the beginning. Poverty is about starting over again and then yet again. It's about talent fully shaped, but which, unencouraged, discouraged, lasts the briefest moment.
--Dagoberto Gilb, "Poverty Is Always Starting Over"
