Famous quotes containing the word people:
“Hell is a city much like London—
A populous and a smoky city;
There are all sorts of people undone,
And there is little or no fun done;
Small justice shown, and still less pity.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
“POET
If not in a place, where are the People weeping?
LIBERAL
They creep weeping in the face, not place.
POET
Is it something with which we may cope
The weeping, the creeping, the peepee-ing, the peeping?”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“There are people who believe everything is sane and sensible that is done with a solemn face.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
