Poverty has strange bedfellows. — © Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
Poverty has strange bedfellows.
War makes strange bedfellows.
Politics make strange bedfellows.
Adversity makes strange bedfellows.
Politics makes strange bedfellows.
Misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows.

We must talk about poverty because people insulated by their own comfort lose sight of it.
