"You the rich are no whit moreattractive or……" — Alice Foote MacDougall
"You the rich are no whit moreattractive or capable than youwho were poor and strugglinga few years back. But when before you plodded lonely and unappreciated, now the glamour of the motor and thesmart apartment surrounds you with a tangible glory. It isamazing how many friends look you up, call you by name, and extol you, who were once a little timid, or indifferent, or utterly neglectful in your time of direpoverty. One has true friends when one is poor and no riches can be greater than that. They are not so obvious when one is rich."
