"We who are rich are often demanding and difficult.
We shut ourselves up in our apartments and may even use a watchdog to defend our property.
Poor people, of course, have nothing to defend and often share the little they have.
When people have all the material things they need, they seem not to need each other.
They are self-sufficient.
There is no interdependence.
There is no love.
In a poor community, however,
there is often a lot of mutual help and sharing of goods,
as well as help from outside.
Poverty can even become a cement of unity."
Jean Vanier
