"There's not a shirt and a half..." - Quote by William Shakespeare
There's not a shirt and a half in all my company, and the halfshirt is two napkins tacked together and thrown over theshoulders like a herald's coat without sleeves.

More by William Shakespeare More on Poverty “The bottom line on the Hyde Amendment is that it is directly, in effect, targeting poor women and women who don't have money.” “The poor have little; beggars, none; the rich, too much; enough, not one.” “And one day we must ask the question, "Why are there forty million poor people in America?" And when you begin to ask that question, you are raising questions about the economic system, about a broader distribution of wealth. When you ask that question, you begin to question the capitalistic economy.” — Martin Luther King, Jr. More on Appearance “[S]he stood for some moments gazing at the sisters, with affection beaming in one eye, and calculation shining out of the other.” “A policeman in plain clothes is a man; in his uniform he is ten. Clothes and title are the most potent thing, the most formidable influence, in the earth. They move the human race to willing and spontaneous respect for the judge, the general, the admiral, the bishop, the ambassador, the frivolous earl, the idiot duke, the sultan, the king, the emperor. No great title is efficient without clothes to support it.” “That the outer man is a picture of the inner, and the face an expression and revelation of the whole character, is a presumption likely enough in itself, and therefore a safe one to go on; borne out as it is by the fact that people are always anxious to see anyone who has made himself famous. Photography offers the most complete satisfaction of our curiosity.”
