“Do not presume, well-housed, well-warmed, and well-fed, to criticize the poor”
“Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made on the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well- warmed, and well-fed.”
“Art for Art’s Sake is for the well fed. The well fed are all the babies in cradles and my kitty along with them, and I am happy if my writings are for my kitty.”
“Art for art's sake is a philosophy of the well-fed. ”
“We ate well and cheaply and drank well and cheaply and slept well and warm together and loved each other.”
“Better a starving eagle, than a well-fed pigeon.”
