Or how about "I'm looking for the bones of your father, but I can't seem to tell them from the bones of his slaves"?
Good choice!
Darwin (before his name was dishonestly invoked for bourgeoisie-friendlier Spencer's "Social Darwinism") had the same observation: so-called nobles have no definitive biological differences to distinguish them from their so-called lessers. That scared the hell out of the ruling class of his day; the pretenses of heresy and all that were an afterthought.
