Famous quotes containing the words class and/or crest:
“One of the strengths I derive from my class background is that I am accustomed to contempt.”
—Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
—Aldous Huxley (18941963)
