Famous quotes containing the words class and/or senators:
“psychologist
Ultimately it’s all a matter of style. What it comes down to is this: Do you spell Jennifer with a J or G? That’s a class division. As a populist, I’m all for G.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“Gold? Yellow, glittering, precious gold?

This yellow slave
Will knit and break religions, bless th’ accursed,
Make the hoar leprosy adored, place thieves,
And give them title, knee and approbation
With senators on the bench.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
