I think the working-class part of me comes out. Sometimes the people who have the loudest mouths are upper-class, upper-middle-class. The quietest are often working-class people, people who are broke. There is a fear of losing whatever it is that you have. I come from that background.

Billie Joe Armstrong

My upbringing was middle-class but my parents' families were both working-class so I had this odd combination of working-class background but in a privileged position.

Denise Mina

I come from a very working-class background, so my family would have been downstairs in the past, as opposed to upstairs. People are often quite surprised to hear that, that I'm not actually posh.

Michelle Dockery

I'm a progressive who knows how to talk to working-class people, and I know how to get elected in working-class districts. Because at the end of the day, the progressive agenda is what's best for working families.

Tim Ryan

I went to a middle-class school, but my background is working class. I got the best of both worlds, I saw both classes, so I have a pretty fair idea of how people live and why they do it.

David Bowie

My background is: I'm a Black man in America, victim of police brutality, victim of institutional racism, working-class from working-class roots.

Jamaal Bowman

Before the arrival of the Credit Union, people who were from the poor background or a working class background couldn't borrow from banks.

John Hume

One of the basic tenets of the working class is you want to get out of the working class.

Michael Moore

I think you'll be surprised at how much more production you can get out of employees if you respect them, befriend them, let them know they're crucial to the company - and then show by example how important it is to put their nose to the grindstone.

Mark Schlereth

I come from a working-class background, and I thought I had to be studying something that would get me a job.

Lynn Coady

No matter how many times the court shuts them down or how many Americans speak out to defend their rights, Republican politicians who stand to gain from suppressing voters won't back down. They'll only change their tactics.

Jason Kander

I think the country will get behind someone who comes from a working-class background, who truly epitomizes the American Dream.

Carlos Lopez-Cantera

You'd be surprised how many people want to hang an electric chair on their living-room wall. Specially if the background color matches the drapes.

Andy Warhol

I'm still working! I think of all the other comics that didn't get the light shined on them, just because it's just how fame works, and it's unfortunate. But there are so many great comics out there who are still working, and I still see them.

Louie Anderson

My roots, my background and the way I act is working class, but it would be hypsocritical to say I'm anything else than middle class now.

John Prescott

The American cinema in general always made stories about working-class people; the British rarely did. Any person with my working-class background would be a villain or a comic cipher, usually badly played, and with a rotten accent. There weren't a lot of guys in England for me to look up to.

Michael Caine
