" 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. "
