Famous quotes containing the words class and/or launched:
“The Americans never use the word peasant, because they have no idea of the class which that term denotes; the ignorance of more remote ages, the simplicity of rural life, and the rusticity of the villager have not been preserved among them; and they are alike unacquainted with the virtues, the vices, the coarse habits, and the simple graces of an early stage of civilization.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
“We’re designing a new spacecraft to be launched and there are no women. Where are they? I wonder. I worry.”
—Andrea Dupree (b. 1939)
