Working Class
» “The history of all countries shows that the working class exclusively by its own effort is able to develop only trade-union consciousness.”
– Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
» ”The worst fault of the working classes is telling their children they’re not going to succeed, saying: ”There is life, but it’s not for you.””
– John Mortimer
» ”In every one of those little stucco boxes there’s some poor bastard who’s never free except when he’s fast asleep and dreaming that he’s got the boss down the bottom of a well and is bunging lumps of coal at him.”
– George Orwell
» ”The same people who are murdered slowly in the mechanized slaughterhouses of work are also arguing, singing, drinking, dancing, making love, holding the streets, picking up weapons and inventing a new poetry.”
– Raoul Vaneigem
» ”That’s what being in the working class is all about — how to get out of it.”
– Neville Kenneth Wran
