noblesse oblige

Literally means, "nobility obliges". It's generally used to imply that with wealth, power, and prestige come social responsibility. It's mostly used to refer to the wealthy who are condescending and shower their money and privileges upon those who don't necessarily want it.

Our landlord gave us a basket of fruit for Christmas, as his noblesse oblige.

noblessez-faire

someone elected to government noble enough to avoid cronyism, and allow citizens to prosper

(portmanteau combining these French terms, used in English):
1. Noblesse oblige: Whoever claims to be noble must conduct himself nobly.

2. Laissez-faire: transactions between private parties free from state-intervention --------> 3. (my neologism)

People running for office -- as wealthy as Ross Perot, Mitt Romney, and John Kerry -- would ideally be uninfluenced by lobbyists' money, level the playing field by the principle of "noblessez-faire".

Nobles and Greenough School

I'll admit that Nobles is a pretty decent school except they're not the best. Roxbury Latin clears your poverty ass school. Y'all suck at pretty much everything other than sports and have women at your school so your all simps. But in conclusion its an ok school. If you go to Nobles stay mad that you don't go to RL but be glad you don't go to Milton.

Milton is somehow even worse than the Nobles and Greenough School, I didn't think it was possible.
