Famous quotes containing the word people:
“But it isn’t only the terror everywhere, and the fear of being conscious of it, that freezes people. It’s more than that. People know they are in a society dead or dying. They are refusing emotion because at the end of very emotion are property, money, power. They work and despise their work, and so freeze themselves. They love but know that it’s a half- love or a twisted love, and so they freeze themselves.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
“I go by the great republican principle, that the people will have the virtue and intelligence to select men of virtue and wisdom [to the offices of government].”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
“Normally, people believe that, if they hear just words, that these words must lead to some thought.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
