Class Riders

Famous quotes containing the words class and/or riders:

    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)

    There where the course is,
    Delight makes all of the one mind,
    The riders upon the galloping horses,
    The crowd that closes in behind....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
