Hindsight is obviously a very great thing, but I'm always convinced that the reason that I didn't take as many politics or history classes is because I just didn't see any women. I didn't think when I was 13, 14 that that had anything to do with me. I just didn't see women in my textbooks.
If the demand for home commodities should be diminished, because of the fall of rent on the part of the landlords, it will be increased in a far greater degree by the increased opulence of the commercial classes.
I've never liked the idea of just having an office in a college somewhere and teaching classes and going to the library and doing research all day. I've never wanted that. The glamorous life is the life that appeals to me.
I'm taking drama classes, they say I'm a natural actress. I think it's just because I talk a lot. I'm also learning how to play guitar and piano. Piano is really hard though. My dad is teaching me and I just get so confused because the chords are so different, but by learning I hope to be able to be a songwriter as well.
There are Plebes in all classes.
Bow, bow, ye lower middle classes! Bow, bow, ye tradesmen, bow, ye masses!
The classes that wash most are those that work least.
O America, how you've taken necessities from the masses to give luxuries to the classes.
I distrust great men. . . . I believe in aristocracy, though. Its members are to be found in all nations and classes, and all through the ages, and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. . . . They are sensitive for others as well as for themselves, they are considerate without being fussy, their pluck is not swankiness but the power to endure and they can take a joke.
He's a werewolf! That's why he's been missing classes!
When I was really young, my mom enrolled me in dance classes.
I can understand how people would despise my image and my father's persona. My father's image amongst the poorest of people, those forgotten by the state, still remains a respected image. Whether we like it or not, my father was an important figure who filled a vacuum left by the state amongst the lower social classes.
I'm from the Midwest, and guys like me don't go on diets. We don't do well on spinning classes.
I took anatomy classes. I went to medical libraries and talked to doctors and nutritionists. I did the whole thing before using myself as a human guinea pig.
The yearning for study was always there. I loved to learn. I really enjoyed studying history. Taking college classes was just something I wanted to do. It gave me such a feeling of satisfaction.
I think classes can be the most fun. And if you want to make it a social thing and you want to go with friends, then that's the way to do it.
Our hopes of avoiding the fate which threatens must. . . [be to make]adjustments that will be needed if we are to recover and surpass our former standards. . . and only if every one of us is ready to individually obey the necessities of readjustment shall we be able to get through a difficult period as free men who can choose their own way of life. Let a uniform minimum be secured to everybody by all means; but let us admit at the same time that with this assurance of a basic minimum all claims for a privileged security for particular classes must lapse.
Economic theology is the opiate of the middle classes.
Remember, social progress only happens when those in society's privileged classes choose to give up their status.
There are two classes of poets - the poets by education and practice, these we respect; and poets by nature, these we love.
