How would I introduce this in my speech?

[Reyesh]

I want to add this from a women in Africa in my speech about World Poverty, how would I introduce this?


“I know poverty because poverty was there before I was born and it has become part of life like the blood through my veins. Poverty is not going empty for a single day and getting something to eat the next day. It’s going empty with no hope for the future. Poverty is getting nobody to feel your pain and poverty is when your dreams go in vain because nobody is there to help you. Poverty is watching the ones you love die in pain and in sorrow just because they couldn't get something to eat or when they cry out to death to come take them because they are tired of this world. Poverty is watching your children and grandchildren share tears in their deepest sleep. Poverty is suffering from HIV/AIDS and dying a shameful death but nobody seems to care. Poverty is when you hide your face and wish nobody could see you just because you feel less than a human being. I know poverty and I know poverty just like I know my father's name. Poverty works all day and night because poverty never sleeps."
