Muhammad Yunus:
“[The poor] do not need us to teach
them how to survive; they already
know. So rather than waste our time
teaching them new skills, we try to
make maximum use of their existing
skills. Giving the poor access to credit
allows them to immediately put into
practice the skills they already know.”
(1999)
