To help the poor to a capacity for action and liberty is something essential for one's own health as well as theirs: there is a needful gift they have to offer which cannot be offered so long as they are confined by poverty.

  • -- Rowan D. Williams 罗文·D·威廉姆斯

帮助穷人获得行动和自由的能力对一个人以及他们自己的健康都是至关重要的:他们必须提供一种必要的礼物，只要他们受到贫困的限制，这种礼物就不能提供。
