Collins Class

Famous quotes containing the words collins and/or class:

    But com’st a decent maid,
    In Attic robe array’d,
    O chaste, unboastful nymph, to thee I call!
    —William Collins (1721–1759)

    Each class of society has its own requirements; but it may be said that every class teaches the one immediately below it; and if the highest class be ignorant, uneducated, loving display, luxuriousness, and idle, the same spirit will prevail in humbler life.
    —First published in Girls’ Home Companion (1895)
