Well, objects aren't called classes. Classes are instances of the Class
class. Objects are instances of classes. Classes are descriptions, or
classifications, of objects.

A class is the definition of an object type. It tells all about what the
object contains and what it does. Then, you might create and actual
instance of that class. The instance would be the object. 

Does that make any sense?
