There is a difference between broke and being poor. Being broke is a temporary economic condition, but being poor is a disabling frame of mind and a depressed condition of your spirit, and you must vow to never, ever be poor again.

John Hope Bryant

Being broke is a temporary situation. Being poor is a state of mind.

Mike Todd

There is a difference between being poor and being broke. Broke is temporary, and poor is eternal.

Robert Kiyosaki

Poor is a state of mind you never grow out of, but being broke is just a temporary condition.

Dick Gregory

Actors never say they're poor. They're always broke. It's always just temporary. 'Broke' is 'poor with hope'.

Alison Arngrim

Poor is a state of mind. Broke is a state of wallet. You can fix being broke; it's not so easy to fix being poor.

Ric Edelman

My grandma forbid us from describing ourselves as poor. She said, 'we're broke.' Because broke is temporary.

Deval Patrick

Broke is a temporary condition, poor is a state of mind.

Richard Francis Burton

Broke is temporary, poor is eternal.

Robert Kiyosaki

I got songs about being broke, being on welfare, being poor, Section 8.

Logic

Being Black and poor is, I think, radically different from being anything else and poor. Poor, to most Blacks, is a state of mind. Those who accept it are poor; those who struggle are middle class.

Nikki Giovanni

If you want to change who you are, begin by changing the size of your dream. Even if you are broke, it does not cost you anything to dream of being rich. Many poor people are poor because they have given up on dreaming.

Robert Kiyosaki

Aloneness is a state of being, whereas loneliness is a state of feeling. It's like the difference between being broke and being poor.

Townes Van Zandt

I don't want there to be this separation between the rich and poor. I may be part of the three percent because I've been fortunate and done well for myself, but I will never forget about the 97 percent. That was me growing up. I was so poor I dreamt about being just 'regular poor,' not 'poor, poor.'

Marlon Wayans

Being poor is a frame of mind.

Mike Todd

You've got that eternal idiotic idea that if anarchy came it would come from the poor. Why should it? The poor have been rebels, but they have never been anarchists; they have more interest than any one else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes been objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all. Aristocrats were always anarchists, as you can see from the barons' wars.

Gilbert K. Chesterton
