Class

Famous quotes containing the word class:

    Think of what our Nation stands for,
    Books from Boots’ and country lanes,
    Free speech, free passes, class distinction,
    Democracy and proper drains.
    Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

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

    Indeed, there are no easy correlations between parental ideology, class or race and “successful” child development. Many children the world over have revealed a kind of toughness and plasticity that make the determined efforts of some parents to spare their children the slightest pain seem ironic.
    Robert Coles (20th century)
