Famous quotes containing the word classes:

    The difference between people isn’t in their class, but in themselves. Only from the middle classes one gets ideas, and from the common people—life itself, warmth. You feel their hates and loves.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Of all classes the rich are the most noticed and the least studied.
    John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    Classes struggle, some classes triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history; such is the history of civilization for thousands of years.
    Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
