Famous quotes containing the words sixth and/or class:
“All my life long I have been sensible of the injustice constantly done to women. Since I have had to fight the world single-handed, there has not been one day I have not smarted under the wrongs I have had to bear, because I was not only a woman, but a woman doing a mans work, without any man, husband, son, brother or friend, to stand at my side, and to see some semblance of justice done me. I cannot forget, for injustice is a sixth sense, and rouses all the others.”
—Amelia E. Barr (18311919)
“You see, after the warand dont forget it lasted a hundred yearsthousands of us went from door to door, asking for honest work, and we were whipped for begging. The ruling class didnt say, Work or starve. They said Starve, for you shall not work.”
—Sonya Levien (18951960)
