Class Kitchen Car

Famous quotes containing the words class, kitchen and/or car:

    Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is in an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob, and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.
    Frederick Douglass (c. 1817–1895)

    I, too, sing America.
    I am the darker brother.
    They send me to eat in the kitchen when company comes.
    But I laugh,
    And eat well,
    And grow strong.
    Langston Hughes (1902–1967)

    Fifty years from now, it will not matter what kind of car you drove, what kind of house you lived in, how much you had in your bank account, or what your clothes looked like, But the world may be a little better because you were important in the life of a child.
    —Anonymous. Quoted in The Winning Family, by Louise Hart, ch. 1 (1987)
