Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “It is ... axiomatic that we should all think of ourselves as being more sensitive than other people because, when we are insensitive in our dealings with others, we cannot be aware of it at the time: conscious insensitivity is a self-contradiction.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “Our young people have come to look upon war as a kind of beneficent deity, which not only adds to the national honor but uplifts a nation and develops patriotism and courage. That is all true. But it is only fair, too, to let them know that the garments of the deity are filthy and that some of her influences debase and befoul a people.”
    —Rebecca Harding Davis (1831–1910)

    “Some of these people need ten years of therapy—ten sentences of mine do not equal ten years of therapy.”
    —Jeff Zaslow (b. 1925)
