    Like fairy-gifts fading away.”
    —Thomas Moore (1779–1852)

    “What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.”
    —Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)
