Famous quotes containing the word people:
“What right those who govern have to govern they don’t question, they just govern. Whether the people have a right to depose them that doesn’t concern them. All they are concerned with is that the people will not be tempted to depose them.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
