With a woman of sophistication, class and modesty and refinement, I become a totally tongue-tied buffoon. I can't even look her straight in the face.
P3- every simple need to which an institutional answer is found permit the invention of a new class of poor and a new definition of poverty
If I have an antipathy for any class of people, it is for fine ladies. I almost match my Husband's detestation of partridge-shooting gentlemen.
I was a class clown. At 12, I was definitely clowning. I was making all the jokes. But I was smart, so the teachers didn't know what to do with me.
You're doing it to make the character as specific as possible, so that it's a specific individual that you're talking about, not that whole class of people.

We're setting up an urban farm for kids on more than 20 acres in New Orleans. We want to make this a world-class educational center for the community.
Different races never fazed me because coming from Bethnal Green, I'd been around people of different races forever. Different class? That was much harder.

I'm always telling students when I do a master class on audiobooks: 'Watch Meryl Streep. Watch her disappear into a role; watch what she does.'
The Fed has got to become a more democratic institution that is responsive to the needs of the middle class, not just Wall Street CEOs.
My position has been consistent that middle class families should not pay more taxes. That hasn't changed.
