Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “Adolescents, for all their self-involvement, are emerging from the self-centeredness of childhood. Their perception of other people has more depth. They are better equipped at appreciating others’ reasons for action, or the basis of others’ emotions. But this maturity functions in a piecemeal fashion. They show more understanding of their friends, but not of their teachers.”
    —Terri Apter (20th century)

    “A good cause can become bad if we fight for it with means that are indiscriminatingly murderous. A bad cause can become good if enough people fight for it in a spirit of comradeship and self-sacrifice. In the end it is how you fight, as much as why you fight, that makes your cause good or bad.”
    —Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)

    “What people do who go into politics I can’t think; it drives me almost mad to see mismanagement over only a few hundred acres.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
