Crystal Classes

Famous quotes containing the words crystal and/or classes:

And we will some new pleasures prove
Of golden sands, and crystal brooks,
With silken lines, and silver hooks.”

“What’s the greatest enemy of Christianity to-day? Frozen meat. In the past only members of the upper classes were thoroughly sceptical, despairing, negative. Why? Among other reasons, because they were the only people who could afford to eat too much meat. Now there’s cheap Canterbury lamb and Argentine chilled beef. Even the poor can afford to poison themselves into complete scepticism and despair.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
