Class Group

Famous quotes containing the words class and/or group:

“There is a struggle between the Oriental and the Occidental in every nation; some who would be forever contemplating the sun, and some who are hastening toward the sunset. The former class says to the latter, When you have reached the sunset, you will be no nearer to the sun. To which the latter replies, But we so prolong the day.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“For me, as a beginning novelist, all other living writers form a control group for whom the world is a placebo.”
