Famous quotes containing the words people and/or living:
“... no young colored person in the United States today can truthfully offer as an excuse for lack of ambition or aspiration that members of his race have accomplished so little, he is discouraged from attempting anything himself. For there is scarcely a field of human endeavor which colored people have been allowed to enter in which there is not at least one worthy representative.”
—Mary Church Terrell (1863–1954)
“The Lady: a fluty voice, sensible shoes, a melancholy sense of living by rules few still remember.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
