Tired of wishes, Empty of dreams. - Carl Sandburg
I couldn’t help but notice how effective the opening sentences of The Working Poor, by David K. Shipler, were:
“The man who washes cars does not own one. The clerk who files cancelled checks at the bank has $202 in her own account. The woman who copy-edits medical textbooks has not been to a dentist in a decade. This is the forgotton America.”
