Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or people:
“a notable prince that was called King John;

“You said that my manner in that book was not serious enough—that I made people laugh in my most earnest moments. But why should I not? Why should humor and laughter be excommunicated?

—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
