Class Divisions Quotes

“The divisions that make up class are, in truth, the borders on a map. When you are born into wealth and privilege, you inherit a plan that outlines the path ahead, indicating the shortcuts and byways available to reach your destination, informing you of the lush valleys where you may rest and the tricky terrain to avoid. If you enter the world without such a map, you are bereft of proper guidance. You lose your way more easily, trying to pass through what you thought were orchards and gardens, only discover they are marshland and peat bogs.”

“On the Pyramid of Life, everyone stands equal on paper. In reality, some are already standing on someone else's shoulders.”
