The view that the relief problems are less than the gross numbers would indicate is confirmed by the experience of several cities, which shows that the number of families in distress represents from 10 to 20 per cent of the number of the calculated unemployed.

"Worse for me, because I cared more, really cared more." "No, worse for her, for it is you who have judged and rejected her." "She thinks that it is she who has judged and rejected me." "She tries to think it; she does not always succeed. It has been bitter, it has been cruel for her." "Oh, yes, bitter and cruel," he assented. "Don't try to minimize her pain, Jack."
The greater part of schoolroom work, you say, must, in the nature of things, always be repulsive. To face uninteresting drudgery is a good part of life's work.

Wilson trained heavy artillery on the enemies' central position. The essential difference between the two men and the operations of their minds was made clear in the campaign. No one would wish to minimize the unusual abilities of Mr. Hughes, but they are the abilities of an adroit lawyer. He makes "points." He pleases those minds which like cleverness and finesse.
Some small creature of the lemur kind is covered with a capacious hand, and we look again, and behold man! We have only to minimize time and minimize space to see the impossible happening all about us or to see the Mosaic account of creation repeated; we have only the clay and water to begin with, when, presto! behold what we have now!
They bet their existence of their ability to minimize moral hazard and hitherto, most of them have been successful.

Citizens pay taxes to ever expanding governments in return for a variety of "safety nets" and state-sponsored insurance schemes.
