Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “If I were sufficiently romantic I suppose I’d have killed myself long ago just to make people talk about me. I haven’t even got the conviction to make a successful drunkard.”
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    “People sometimes tell me that they prefer barbarism to civilisation. I doubt if they have given it a long enough trial. Like the people of Alexandria, they are bored by civilisation; but all the evidence suggests that the boredom of barbarism is infinitely greater.”
    —Kenneth MacKenzie Clark, Baron of Saltwood (1903–1983)

    “There’re two people in the world that are not likeable: a master and a slave.”
    —Nikki Giovanni (b. 1943)
