Pearl S. Buck
The rich are always afraid.
Pearl S. Buck
I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in human beings.
Pearl S. Buck
Hunger makes a thief of any man.
Pearl S. Buck
Some are kissing mothers and some are scolding mothers, but it is love just the same, and most mothers kiss and scold together.
Pearl S. Buck
There is an alchemy in sorrow. It can be transmuted into wisdom, which, if it does not bring joy, can yet bring happiness.
Pearl S. Buck
One faces the future with one's past.
