Famous quotes containing the word people:
“My mother and father are the only people on the whole planet for whom I will never begrudge a thing. Should I achieve great things, it is the work of their hands; they are splendid people and their absolute love of their children places them above the highest praise. It cloaks all of their shortcomings, shortcomings that may have resulted from a difficult life.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (18601904)
“I went to a literary gathering once.... The place was filled with people who looked as if they had been scraped up out of drains. The ladies ran to draped plush dressesfor Art; to wreaths of silken flowerets in the hairfor Femininity; and, somewhere between the two adornments, to chain-drive pince-nezfor Astigmatism. The gentlemen were small and somewhat in need of dusting.”
—Dorothy Parker (18931967)
“Old people working. Making a gift of garden.
Or washing a car, so some one else may ride.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
