Famous quotes containing the words people and/or languages:

    I think people really marry far too much; it is such a lottery after all, and for a poor woman a very doubtful happiness.
    Victoria (1819–1901)

    No doubt, to a man of sense, travel offers advantages. As many languages as he has, as many friends, as many arts and trades, so many times is he a man. A foreign country is a point of comparison, wherefrom to judge his own.
