Famous quotes containing the words significant and/or people:

    “... the loss of belief in future states is politically, though certainly not spiritually, the most significant distinction between our present period and the centuries before. And this loss is definite. For no matter how religious our world may turn again, or how much authentic faith still exists in it, or how deeply our moral values may be rooted in our religious systems, the fear of hell is no longer among the motives which would prevent or stimulate the actions of a majority.”
    —Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    “With a binding like you’ve got, people are gonna want to know what’s in the book.”
    —Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
