These are pretty hard, at least to me. Please help me check my answers.
1. Most luxuries, and the so-called comforts of life, are not only indispensable, but positive hinderances to the elevation of mankind. With respects to luxuries and comforts, the wisest have ever lived a more simple and meager life than the poor. The ancient philosophers, Chinese, Hindu, Persian, and Greek, were a class than which none had been poorer in outward riches, none so rich inward. We know not much about them. It is remarkable that we know so much of them as we do. The same is true of the modern reformers and benefactors of their race. None can be an impartial or wise observer of human life but from the vantage ground of what we should call voluntary povery.
