“... capacitatea de adaptare a aristocrației s-a manifestat în capacitatea ei de a “nu discuta” și de a “sluji”. Discutau intelectualii – aristocrații au dovedit neașteptate disponibilități pentru muncă. Poate știuseră cîndva să se țină în șa și să sărute mîinile femeilor, dar nu trebuie să uităm niciodată că au reprezentat o clasă, că au avut un caracter de clasă. Filozofia, etica și morala lor le erau atribuite prin naștere, și dacă acestea aparțineau clasei lor, ei nu trebuiau să cheltuiască nici forțe spirituale, nici forțe fizice pentru a-și forma convingeri și principii ... Ei puteau să îndeplinească o funcție, să execute ordine, conducîndu-se după ideile cinstei și datoriei, fără să intre în conflict cu conștiința lor. Aceasta este capacitatea de care au dat ei dovadă. N-au acceptat nimic din schimbările survenite, dar au continuat să trăiască într-o lume schimbată, pentru a păstra măcar acele trăsături care le erau caracteristice, inerente structurii lor ... precum: cinstea, principialitatea, respectarea cuvîntului dat, noblețea, onoarea, curajul, dreptatea, stăpînirea de sine... Ei au pierdut totul, însă aceste trăsături ar fi dorit să le piardă în ultimul rînd: erau însăși natura lor.”

“Have a seat right here, ma'am! Please watch your step. If you'll have a seat, I'll bring your food to you." "Thank you! It's so nice that you have a restaurant that can accommodate our baby stroller." "Would you like me to bring you a spoon, along with chopsticks?" "Please! That would be great." "Oh my gosh, that girl isn't the shrinking violet she looks like either! That is some confident and conscientious service for someone her age!" "The ideal for customer service is 100 percent satisfaction from all customers... but the reality of limited time and manpower makes it difficult. When things are at their most crowded, you must calm yourself... Consider everything a customer may want, and then prioritize what is most important for whom!" "Now is when I have to make the best use of everything I learned over Stagiare Week!”

“We Americans are not usually thought to be a submissive people, but of course we are. Why else would we allow our country to be destroyed? Why else would we be rewarding its destroyers? Why else would we all — by proxies we have given to greedy corporations and corrupt politicians — be participating in its destruction? Most of us are still too sane to piss in our own cistern, but we allow others to do so and we reward them for it. We reward them so well, in fact, that those who piss in our cistern are wealthier than the rest of us. How do we submit? By not being radical enough. Or by not being thorough enough, which is the same thing.”
