He is poor indeed that can promise nothing.

Summary

This quote signifies the notion that true poverty is not merely measured by a lack of material wealth, but also by the inability to make promises or fulfill obligations. It suggests that a person's worth and social standing is determined by their ability to provide and fulfill commitments. In this context, a person who cannot promise anything implies that they lack resources, power, or influence, thus highlighting the deeper implications of poverty beyond financial doom.
