Famous quotes containing the word class:
“The prostitute is the scapegoat for everyones sins, and few people care whether she is justly treated or not. Good people have spent thousands of pounds in efforts to reform her, poets have written about her, essayists and orators have made her the subject of some of their most striking rhetoric; perhaps no class of people has been so much abused, and alternatively sentimentalized over as prostitutes have been but one thing they have never yet had, and that is simple legal justice.”
—Alison Neilans. Justice for the ProstituteLady Astors Bill, Equal Rights (September 19, 1925)
