Famous quotes containing the words ice and/or class:

    “Goodness and evil never share the same road, just as ice and charcoal never share the same container.”
    —Chinese proverb.

    “You must drop all your democracy. You must not believe in “the people.” One class is no better than another. It must be a case of Wisdom, or Truth. Let the working classes be working classes. That is the truth. There must be an aristocracy of people who have wisdom, and there must be a Ruler: a Kaiser: no Presidents and democracies.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
