Quote by G.K. Chesterton
“And he said, This schoolroom is an immense town, and in it there are a million inhabitants, and only five-and-twenty are starved to death in the streets, in the course of a year. What is your remark on that proportion? And my remark was- for I couldn't think of a better one- that I thought it must be just as hard upon those who were starved , whether the others were a million, or a million million.”
