Famous quotes containing the word people:

    There are times when they seem so small! And then again, although they never seem large, there is a vastness behind them, a past of indefinite complexity and marvel, an amazing power of absorbing and assimilating, which forces one to suspect some power in the race so different from our own that one cannot understand that power. And ... whatever doubts or vexations one has in Japan, it is only necessary to ask oneself: “Well, who are the best people to live with?”
    Lafcadio Hearn (1850–1904)

    So far is it from being true that men are naturally equal, that no two people can be half an hour together, but one shall acquire an evident superiority over the other.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    It is fortunate to be of high birth, but it is no less so to be of such character that people do not care to know whether you are or are not.
    —Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)
