I don't like class distinction, and there is far too much of that in England.

Class still matters in Britain today.

There's an unhealthy obsession in America with royalty and the class system.

Everything is about class in England, whether it's upper, lower or middle. Why should that be?

In public schools, classes are bloated - it's ridiculous.

The ignorant classes are the dangerous classes.

I'm reluctant to use the word class so much.

The working class of England today have no vision of society beyond the acquisitive - no version of themselves or their habits as anything other than transitional, on their way up or on their way out. The working class, at best, is a waiting room for people who aim to become middle class if possible.

Class is something I know about. I've lived it every day of my life, and it shaped me in my identity.

I have a class prejudice - against the upper class, which is foolish.
