                                    The world inside myself is vaster and richer than this paltry plane, peopled with mere galaxies and gods.                                
                                                        — Rachel Hartman
                        
                        
				                                                            
                                    Drawn by conceit from reason's plan
How vain is that poor creature man;
How pleas'd in ev'ry paltry elf
To grate about that thing himself. — Charles Churchill

                                    I did not steal your paltry goods!                                
                                                        — Mark Twain
                        
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    There is no problem that is not improved by effort, and no effort that is too paltry to be worth undertaking.                                
                                                        — Sam Waterston
                        
                        
				                                                            
                                    Pain revealed the paltry dimensions of love. The paltry dimensions of everything, in fact, except pain.

                                    It's crazy that America gives such a paltry percentage of its GNP to the starving nations.

                                    Life and death- what paltry words, what tarnished bookends,what unjust summation for drawing breath one moment and failing to release it the next.                                
                                                        — Rebecca Rasmussen
                        
                                				
        		        				
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    The idea of God ends in a paltry Methodist meeting-house.                                
                                                        — Ralph Waldo Emerson
                        
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    Death unites as well as separates; it silences all paltry feeling.                                
                                                        — Honore De Balzac
                        
                        
				                                                            
                                    It grieved him to think of that paltry, guarded, nut-like thing that was his artistic reputation.                                
                                                        — Carol Shields
                        
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    The Charkha in the hands of a poor widow brings a paltry price to her, in the hands of Jawaharlal; it is an instrument of India's freedom.                                
                                                        — Mahatma Gandhi
                        
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    Nothing conceivable is so petty, so insipid, so crowded with paltry interests, in one word, so anti-poetic, as the life of a man in the United States.                                
                                                        — Alexis De Tocqueville
                        
                        
				                                                            
                                    Use your God given time wisely, don't waste it in paltry things.

                                    Your heart may be paltry compared with the heart of a great saint, but your heart is what God wants from you.                                
                                                        — Peter Kreeft
                        
                                				
        		        				
                                				
        		        				
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    I said: 'Thou thing of patches, rings,
Pins, necklaces and suchlike things,
Disguiser of the female form,
Thou paltry, gilded poisonous worm! — William Blake

                                    From infancy on, we are all spies; the shame is not this but that the secrets to be discovered are so paltry and few.                                
                                                        — John Updike
                        
                                				
        		        				
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    Life in clubs is no paltry sign of the times we live in. Here gentlemen gamble with others whom they would not dream of inviting to their homes.                                
                                                        — Honore De Balzac
                        
                                				
        		        				
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    The thinker without a paradox is like a lover without a feeling: a paltry mediocrity.

                                    So long as you don't feel life's paltry and a miserable business, the rest doesn't matter, happiness or unhappiness.

                                    I would far rather burn my whole book, than that he or any other man should think i behaved in a paltry manner (Charles Darwin)                                
                                                        — Abram Kardiner
                        
                                				
        		        				
				                                                            
                                    If a man is to have a fault, it should be a passionate one, like insatiable curiosity. It would be a pity to be damned for something paltry.
