Famous quotes containing the word people:
“When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people not characters. A character is a caricature.”

“My time has come.
There are twenty people in my belly,
there is a magnitude of wings,
there are forty eyes shooting like arrows,
and they will all be born.
All be born in the yellow wind.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
