Famous quotes containing the words people and/or express:

“Constancy ... that small change of love, which people exact so rigidly, receive in such conterfeit coin, and repay in baser metal.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

“As a father I had some trouble finding the words to separate the person from the deed. Usually, when one of my sons broke the rules or a window, I was too angry to speak calmly and objectively. My own solution was to express my feelings, but in an exaggerated, humorous way: “You do that again and you will be grounded so long they will call you Rip Van Winkle II,” or “If I hear that word again, I’m going to braid your tongue.””
—David Elkind (20th century)
