"It is altogether curious, your first contact with poverty...You thought it would be quite simple, it is extraordinarily complicated. You thought it would be terrible; it is merely squalid and boring. It is the peculiar lowness of poverty that you discover first; the shifts that it puts you to, the complicated meanness, the crust-wiping."

p.13. George Orwell, 'Down and Out in London and Paris'
