First World Privilege Quotes

“Is it because we’re having so much fun at home we’ve forgotten the world? Is it because we’re so rich and the rest of the world’s so poor and we just don’t care if they are? I’ve heard rumors; the world is starving, but we’re well fed. Is it true, the world works hard and we play? Is that why we’re hated so much?”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

“Rich kids—they can never admit they’re rich.”
― R. Kikuo Johnson, Night Fisher
