Grading System

Famous quotes containing the words grading and/or system:

    The only phenomenon with which writing has always been concomitant is the creation of cities and empires, that is the integration of large numbers of individuals into a political system, and their grading into castes or classes.... It seems to have favored the exploitation of human beings rather than their enlightenment.
    Claude Lévi-Strauss (b. 1908)

    Delight at having understood a very abstract and obscure system leads most people to believe in the truth of what it demonstrates.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
