Passages with Solved Precis

People moan about poverty as a great evil and it seems to be an accepted belief that if people only had plenty of money, they would be happy and useful and get more out of life. As a rule there is more genuine satisfaction in life and more attained from life in the humble cottages of the poor man than in the palaces of the rich. I always pity the sons and daughters of rich men who are attended by servants, and have governesses at a later age, at the same time I am glad to think that they do not know what they have missed.

It is because I know how sweet and happy and pure the home of honest poverty is, how free from perplexing care and from social envies and jealousies, how loving and united its members are in the common interest of supporting the family that I sympathise With the rich and congratulate the poor man’s son. It is for these reasons that from the ranks of the poor so many strong, eminent, self-reliant men have always sprung and always must spring. if you will read the list of the “Immortals who were not born to die”, you will find the most of them had been poor.

The Asian Games, in view of the recent decision of the Government of India, will be staged at Delhi and Rai where stadium will be constructed for which several crores of rupees have been earmarked. Some people content that construction of stadium will mar Delhi’s beauty, but much larger Olympic Games did not affect the beauty of Tokyo, Rome and other places, where these were held. It is a question of cultural intercourse with Asian neighbours and India has got to play the host which will enhance her prestige abroad.
