Matthew Desmond Quotes
Arleen's Children Did Not Always Have A Home. They Did Not Always Have Food. Arleen Was Not Always Able To Offer Them Stability; Stability Cost Too Much. She Was Not Always Able To Protect Them From Dangerous Streets; Those Streets Were Her Streets. Arleen Sacrificed For Her Boys, Fed Them As Best She Could, Clothed Them With What She Had. But When They Wanted More Than She Could Give, She Had Ways, Some Subtle, Others Not, Of Telling Them They Didn't Deserve It.
