I think that, often, actors represent what they're not. You get people who define the aristocracy who are not aristocratic - they're lower-middle class or working class. An awful lot of your so-called angry young actors have grown up in extreme bourgeois comfort. It really is surprisingly common.

Colin Firth

Excluded from all fellowship at meals, excluded from all sacrifices, excluded from instruction and from matrimonial alliances, abject and excluded from all religious duties, let them wander over ,this earth.

Guru Nanak

When I was just 13, we went from being middle class to lower middle class and finally lower class, as someone close to my father took away everything he had, including his property. All of a sudden, I started working at the age of 13.

Nana Patekar

I've gradually risen from lower-class background to lower-class foreground.

Marvin L. Cohen

I grew up lower-middle class outside of Austin, I'm a white guy, and I write movies.

Riley Stearns

Most children of the underclass are born out of wedlock; relationships are fleeting and unstable (which ensures that what is born into the underclass stays in the underclass). This is a world in which there are almost no worthwhile male role models, which is a disaster when boys turn to youths.

Andrew Neil

It`s not just Republicans. It`s Republicans and Democrats. It`s middle class, lower middle class, working class Americans who have felt the angst, who are frustrated, who are angry as a result of 1% growth which, in my view, has been really the issue that has propelled Donald Trump from day one.

Bob Ehrlich

The upper class desire to remain so, the middle class wish to overthrow the upper class, and the lower class want a classless system.

George Orwell

Women are suffering because they are being excluded. The high military council excluded women from the committee to change the constitution [of Egypt]. We cannot be liberated as women in a society built on class oppression or gender oppression or religious oppression.

Nawal El Saadawi

I love to learn; I really do. We'd study something in class, and I'd take it outside of class and become, like, obsessive and just research everything.

Mary-Kate Olsen

In every society, manufacturing builds the lower middle class. If you give up manufacturing, you end up with haves and have-nots, and you get social polarization. The whole lower middle class sinks.

Vaclav Smil

What is economics? A science invented by the upper class in order to acquire the fruits of the labor of the underclass

August Strindberg

Everything I sang sounded awful. So I went outside and I screamed. Everyone pretty much agreed it was awful.

Reese Witherspoon

Contrary to public opinion and the image people have of me, I grew up in a very lower-middle-class, blue-collar environment 40 minutes outside of New York until I was 11.

David Cassidy

The working-class aspirations are worse now than when I was a kid - and it was pretty bad when I was a kid. Reality TV means they are being told they are no longer a working class, they're an underclass. Young lassies want to be Jordan or Jade, but very few aspire to be the next Germaine Greer.

Peter Mullan

The anger from Occupy Wall Street is coming from this simple fact: America no longer seems to be a place where you can work your way up, from rags to riches, from lower class to middle class to upper class.

Meghan McCain
