Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Chinese were born ... with an accumulated wisdom, a natural sophistication, an intelligent naivete, and unless they were transplanted too young, these qualities ripened in them.... If ever I am homesick for China, now that I am home in my own country, it is when I discover here no philosophy. Our people have opinions and creeds and prejudices and ideas but as yet no philosophy.”
—Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)
“... people will sometimes say, “Why don’t you write more politics?” And I have to explain to them that writing the lives of women is politics.”
—Grace Paley (b. 1922)
“Most people grow old within a small circle of ideas, which they have not discovered for themselves. There are perhaps less wrong-minded people than thoughtless.”
—Luc, Marquis de Vauvenargues (1715–1747)
