Quote by Jane Austen

Where people are really attached, poverty itself is wealth.

Where people are really attached, poverty itself is wealth.

Summary

This quote suggests that in a strong and close-knit community, the value of material wealth diminishes. When people form deep bonds and meaningful connections, their attachment to one another becomes more valuable than any material possessions they may have. In such circumstances, poverty loses its importance and is seen as a form of wealth, as the richness of their relationships supersedes the need for material abundance. This quote highlights the significance of human connection and unity in finding true fulfillment and contentment.

But he was there.Day and night he was there for me,risking his very existence to protect me from a war that claimed my life over and over again.He never faltered,never wavered,never feared for his own safety.He was beaten,stabbed,abused, and tortured again and again,yet he still stuck by me,ignoring the possibility that he would die for me one day. It wasn't right. I didn't deserve everything he sacrificed for me.I wasn't worth so high a price.
