Quote: Beggars cant be choosers.
I beg to differ. Everyone in the WORLD has a choice. If the beggar feels like sitting at the pedestrian walkway and begging as opposed to a corner between 54th and 52nd, thats a choice right?
And if he chooses to sell tissues while begging or if he prefers to play the organ etc, thats a choice too.
And whether he chooses to use a cup, a tupperware, a tin or a box for coins and dollars, thats a choice too right? :p
But I know what this phrase means actually - if you're poor, you have to take ANYTHING that comes your way. Like food handouts, whether its pizza, chicken curry and rice, day old bread, or mouldy pastries.
And when it comes to clothes handouts, its amazing what people handout - torn clothes, clothes with holes, stuff thats got no buttons and zippers. I mean, come ON!
SEIZE THE DAY
