Class

Famous quotes containing the word class:

    No human being is innocent, but there is a class of innocent human actions called Games.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    Ours is the old, old story of every uprising race or class or order. The work of elevation must be wrought by ourselves or not at all.
    Frances Power Cobbe (1822–1904)

    You see, after the war—and don’t forget it lasted a hundred years—thousands of us went from door to door, asking for honest work, and we were whipped for begging. The ruling class didn’t say, “Work or starve.” They said “Starve, for you shall not work.”
    Sonya Levien (1895–1960)
