“Class. You either have it, or you don't. It's not determined by how you dress, your level of education, or your social standing. It's conveyed in how you carry yourself and treat others.

Ultimately, people with class are outstanding without trying too hard to stand out.”― Carlos Wallace, Life Is Not Complicated-You Are: Turning Your Biggest Disappointments Into Your Greatest Blessings
