Benjamin Disraeli, 1804-1881

Disraeli's observation, about the upper and lower classes, also relates to our modern problems with unassimilated immigrants : “ ... two nations ... as ignorant of each other’s habits, thoughts, and feelings, as if they were of different planets; who are ... fed by different food, are ordered by different manners, and are not governed by the same laws.”

More of the prime minister's wise thoughts.
