Famous quotes containing the words struggles, early and/or tigers:

    We of the sinking middle class ... may sink without further struggles into the working class where we belong, and probably when we get there it will not be so dreadful as we feared, for, after all, we have nothing to lose but our aitches.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    Everyone in our culture wants to win a prize. Perhaps that is the grand lesson we have taken with us from kindergarten in the age of perversions of Dewey-style education: everyone gets a ribbon, and praise becomes a meaningless narcotic to soothe egoistic distemper.
    —Gerald Early (b. 1952)

    Aunt Jennifer’s tigers prance across a screen,
    Bright topaz denizens of a world of green.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
