Famous quotes containing the word classes:

    “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)

    “I am ... by tradition and long study a complete snob. P. Marlowe and I do not despise the upper classes because they take baths and have money; we despise them because they are phony.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “Genocide begins, however improbably, in the conviction that classes of biological distinction indisputably sanction social and political discrimination.”
    —Andrea Dworkin (b. 1946)
