"People of privilege will always risk their complete destruction rather than surrender any material part of their advantage. Intellectual myopia, often called stupidity, is no doubt a reason. But the privileged also feel that their privileges, however egregious they may seem to others, are a solemn, basic, God-given right."
- John Kenneth Galbraith
“You know, I've been around the ruling class all my life,
and I've been quite aware of their total contempt for the people."
- Gore Vidal
