Quote by Judith Martin (b. 1938)

• There are three social classes in America: upper middle class, middle class, and lower middle class.

• We are born charming, fresh and spontaneous and must be civilized before we are fit to participate in society.

• It is far more impressive when others discover your good qualities without your help.

• Let us make a special effort to stop communicating with each other, so we can have some conversation.

• What you have when everyone wears the same playclothes for all occasions, is addressad by nickname, expected to participate in Show And Tell, and bullied out of any desire form privacy, is not democracy; it is kindergarten.
