Two classes of cruiser of the Royal Navy are known as the Arethusa class:
- The Arethusa class of eight light cruisers built in 1912–1914 that served in World War I.
- The Arethusa class of four light cruisers built in 1934–1936 that served in World War II.
Famous quotes containing the word class:
“A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another.”
—Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
