Bowen/people

Famous quotes containing the words bowen and/or people:

    [My early stories] are the work of a living writer whom I know in a sense, but can never meet.
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    When people generally are aware of a problem, it can be said to have entered the public consciousness. When people get on their hind legs and holler, the problem has not only entered the public consciousness—it has also become a part of the public conscience. At that point, things in our democracy begin to hum.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
