Famous quotes containing the word people:

    “I never approve, or disapprove, of anything now. It is an absurd attitude to take towards life. We are not sent into the world to air our moral prejudices. I never take any notice of what common people say, and I never interfere with what charming people do.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
