Class Quotations
There is only one class in the community that thinks more about money than the rich, and that is the poor. The poor can think of nothing else.
Oscar Wilde
It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native criminal class except Congress.
Mark Twain
There is no distinctly American criminal class - except Congress.
Mark Twain
The oppressed are allowed once every few years to decide which particular representatives of the oppressing class are to represent and repress them.
Karl Marx
If anything, taxes for the lower and middle class and maybe even the upper middle class should even probably be cut further. But I think that people at the high end - people like myself - should be paying a lot more in taxes. We have it better than we've ever had it.
Warren Buffett
The most perfect political community is one in which the middle class is in control, and outnumbers both of the other classes.
Aristotle
Our object in the construction of the state is the greatest happiness of the whole, and not that of any one class.
Plato
In general, the art of government consists of taking as much money as possible from one class of citizens to give to another.
Voltaire
It has always been my belief that a man should do his best, regardless of how much he receives for his services, or the number of people he may be serving or the class of people served.
Napoleon Hill
I will cut taxes - cut taxes - for 95 percent of all working families, because, in an economy like this, the last thing we should do is raise taxes on the middle class.
Barack Obama
