Class Runs

Famous quotes containing the words class and/or runs:

    “Ours is the old, old story of every uprising race or class or order. The work of elevation must be wrought by ourselves or not at all.”

    “Across the lonely beach we flit,
    One little sandpiper and I;
    And fast I gather, bit by bit,
    The scattered driftwood, bleached and dry.
    The wild waves reach their hands for it,
    The wild wind raves, the tide runs high,
    As up and down the beach we flit—
    One little sandpiper and I.”
    —Celia Thaxter (”Laighton”)
