From R.H. Blyth:

“What then is the function of poverty in life, reality, poetry? Poverty means the closest possible approximation of these three things which in our ordinary manner of living are separated.”

One thought on “Quote of the day 05/12/25”

  1. So in the quote, is Blythe using poverty as a code word for reducing things to their most essential state?
